Sydney Sweeney is currently making waves with her challenging and brilliant portrayal in Echo Valley . Her performance is described as unsettling and a perfect portrayal of calculated chaos.
The actress plays Claire Garrett , a troubled girl who arrives at her mother’s ranch soaked in blood, triggering a series of events that uncover unsettling and dark secrets, which challenges their already fragile bond.
Sydney’s performance is being applauded all around the globe and recently the actress shared how she prepared herself to play such a complicated role.
In a recent interview with Variety, the ‘Anyone but You’ star opened up on working in Echo Valley and said, "When you have a scene partner like Julianne, it’s not as hard as you would think. She is such an amazing actress and just so emotionally available and open, it makes you feel safe. So I felt very, very comfortable going to very deep raw places."
Adding how she prepared for the part, the actress shared, "I watched a lot of videos. There’s a YouTube series of this guy that interviews people on Skid Row that have struggled with addiction and are [still] currently. I watched a lot of them and drew from different stories that they would tell or mannerisms that they have."
Adding further, "Sometimes, to be honest, I don’t really plan anything, or I don’t like to think it through. I don’t know if that’s great, but for me, it’s like, you don’t really rehearse a conversation that you’re gonna have. Like, I didn’t rehearse things out. I kind of like being able to see whatever’s gonna happen, happen. It’s really exciting. And then you can learn in the process and discover new things," she concluded.
Sydney is set for the upcoming year with movies like Immaculate, Eden, and The Housemaid. She is also set to star in a movie adaptation of the video game Split Fiction and a remake of Barbarella.
