“The ones that I have to fight for are usually the ones that I want that are different, like Reality,” Sweeney said in an interview with Variety.
“I was required to try out for it. Like everyone else, I had to record myself and submit my audition. She continued by describing the difficulties she had during her White Lotus audition.
“White Lotus experienced the same thing. Since I did Euphoria, they didn’t believe I was suitable for White Lotus. Like everyone else, I put myself on video, went to White Lotus for an audition, and received a callback.
“I could get offered roles that are similar to the ones that I’ve played, but the ones that are different, the ones that surprise people that I do, are the ones that I usually have to fight for.”
Sweeney’s risqué sequences in Euphoria made it difficult for some of her family members to even watch the program, even if she had to persuade casting directors to see beyond her HBO part.
In an interview with Willie Geist on Sunday Today, Sweeney discussed her family’s reaction to her appearance on the program.
