Sydney Sweeney might be at the center of some major backlash due to her recent American Eagle ad, but that hasn’t kept the Anyone But You star from landing role after role.
During an interview with Wall Street Journal, published on Wednesday, August 20, Sweeney clarified comments she made in a previous 2022 interview that alluded to the actress not being able to afford taking off work.
“What I was talking about is more that I didn’t have time to take six months off. I was so busy, and still, same. But I do that because I don’t want to take six months off,” Sweeney, 27, told the outlet. “I get anxiety thinking about just taking a few days off.”
“But if I wanted to lock everything in, I could probably be booked for the next three or four years,” she added.
There’s no denying that the Euphoria actress has been popping up everywhere lately. She starred in Echo Valley, a thriller released earlier this summer, and she has several films set to premiere over the next few months, including a biopic about boxer Christy Martin and the adaptation of Freida McFadden’s best-selling novel The Housemaid.
However, Sweeney confessed that she doesn’t really have anyone other than herself who inspires her right now.
“I’ve always said that I look up to the older version of myself,” she explained. “So I’m hoping that whatever I’m doing now, 40-year-old Sydney will be proud of.”
Earlier this summer, fans alleged the Americana star’s recent campaign with American Eagle promoted themes of eugenics and white supremacy.
