A character named Karen (played by Otmara Marrero) encounters another woman, Lana (portrayed by Sydney Sweeney), during a challenging period in her personal relationships.

Surprisingly, they embarked on an intricate yet captivating bond. Although the film’s narrative had moments that were both engaging and dull, Sweeney’s acting left critics and viewers spellbound.

9. Nocturne (2020)

Sydney Sweeney’s portrayal in the chilling drama Nocturne was exceptionally captivating. Her character, Julie, is a character marked by envy and bitterness, a pianist with a particularly frosty demeanor towards her sister’s remarkable musical prowess. Driven by ambition, Julie seeks admission to the same prestigious music school as her sister.

Under the influence of sinister longings stirred by her malevolent ex-student’s spectral presence, Julie finds herself caught in a treacherous competition with her sibling. The actor Sweeney delivers an exceptional performance, capturing the character’s slide into jealousy and fixation.

8. The Voyeurs (2021)

The Voyeurs centers around the tale of Pippa (Sydney Sweeney) and Thomas (Justice Smith), a newly settled couple who’ve just moved into an apartment that thrilled Pippa greatly. Not long after moving in, they discover they can peek into the apartments across the street.

As the movie nears its climax, the pair secretly observes their neighbors in the adjacent flat, ultimately discovering a startling revelation that leaves them utterly shocked. Sweeney’s exceptional acting skills are undeniably showcased throughout this film.

7. Sharp Objects (2018)

Based on the novel by Gillian Flynn, Sharp Objects is an HBO miniseries encompassing 8 episodes. In this series, Sydney Sweeney’s character, Alice, encounters Camille, portrayed by Amy Adams, within a mental health institution. Both characters in this facility grapple with self-harming behaviors.

Although Sweeney played a supporting role, her portrayal was pivotal in highlighting the turbulence of Camille’s upbringing, shaped by a variety of emotional triggers. Despite this not being one of Sweeney’s earliest roles, she delivered an exceptional performance that contributed to her career’s rapid rise.

6. Night Teeth (2021)

The Night Teeth movie, which falls under the vampire-horror genre, explores a concept where seemingly angelic beings conceal their demonic nature. Sydney Sweeney and Megan Fox were cast in significant roles as two vampires. However, unlike typical films within this genre, it opted for a less gory portrayal. What caught viewers off guard was that, despite being heavily promoted as the main characters, Sweeney and Fox actually had limited screen time.

Despite being a bit puzzling for some, the film undeniably made an impact through the actors’ striking ensembles that grabbed viewers’ attention. This part of Sydney Sweeney’s portfolio serves as a testament to her versatility, as she fearlessly delves into diverse genres and takes on unique roles in her acting career.

5. Reality (2023)

Afterward, Sydney Sweeney portrays Reality Winner, a true-life American Air Force veteran and ex-NSA translator. Charged with disclosing classified data to the Russians, her character experiences intense hardships as a result of her actions.

In Tina Satter’s movie, a significant part of the dialogue is derived from authentic FBI transcripts of Reality’s interrogation. This performance by Sweeney has been highly praised, earning her accolades and boosting the film’s overall positive reception.

4. Everything Sucks (2018)

In 1996, this television series centers around a gang of teenagers not typically at the top of the popularity chain. The drama club, joined by fellow students from the audio-visual department, unite with the goal of creating a movie for their school’s showcase event.

Despite not being the primary character, Sweeney stands out in his portrayal as a theater enthusiast and eventually emerges as the romantic interest of one of the main female characters. Regrettably, viewers were disappointed when the series ended prematurely following just one season.

3. Euphoria (2019-)

Cassie Howard, portrayed by Sydney Sweeney in Euphoria, is widely recognized as her most prominent character. Cassie is a striking high school student who has faced difficult circumstances throughout her life, such as a tense bond with her father. Initially, she was a confidante to Maddy (Alexa Demie), but tension builds up in Season 2 when she enters into a clandestine romantic entanglement with Nate (Jacob Elordi), who used to date Maddy.

The memorable showdown between Maddy and Cassie caught fire on social networks, igniting discussions among viewers about their allegiances being either “for Maddy” or “for Cassie.” However, the real focus should be on Sweeney’s exceptional performance, which gained her significant recognition and likely marked a pivotal moment in her acting journey.

2. The White Lotus (2021)

In the given HBO series, Olivia Mossbacher portrays Sweeny as a character who is demanding and harsh. However, the actress delves deep into this role, showcasing her impressive range as an actor. The narrative primarily focuses on a diverse ensemble of characters who temporarily reside at the lavish Lotus Inn, a high-end resort.

Many factors heavily influence these people as they grapple with an unforeseen conclusion, and it’s worth mentioning that Sweeney was a character featured exclusively in the first season. The show garnered favorable critiques, particularly for the performance of Sweeney.

1. Anyone But You (2023)

In the modern romantic comedy “Anyone But You,” Sydney Sweeney takes on the role of Bea, while Glen Powell portrays Ben. Following their delightful evening date, an unexpected turn of events occurs when Bea departs without saying goodbye the next morning. Unbeknownst to him, Ben shares some less-than-favorable comments about Bea with his friend. However, what he didn’t realize was that Bea was actually listening in.

However, due to their sisters’ shared destination wedding in Australia, they found themselves obligated to interact. The on-screen chemistry between them in this film was remarkable, and Sweeney’s adaptability earned her a great deal of affection for her acting. This movie is an excellent choice for a romantic escape during the upcoming holiday season.
