After a whirlwind year headlining major projects, Hollywood star Sydney Sweeney is gearing up for a personal milestone this festive season. The actress, who captivated audiences in 2025 with films like Christy and The Housemaid, has announced she will finally experience holiday travel for the very first time.
A Well-Deserved Break After a Hectic Schedule
In a recent chat with Extra, Sweeney shared her exciting plans, stating, "I'm going to travel ... I've never traveled for the holidays before." This revelation comes after months of intense work filming the highly anticipated third season of the HBO hit series 'Euphoria'. The actress expressed immense relief and anticipation for the break, highlighting how her schedule has been packed with back-to-back commitments.
Sweeney also can't wait to finally discuss the new season of 'Euphoria' with its massive fanbase. Reports from femalefirst.co.uk quote her saying, "I'm really, really looking forward to being able to finally talk about it. It's going to be coming pretty soon, so I'll have way more to share in the new year." This hints at a potential early 2026 release or major announcements.
More Than Just Cassie: Sweeney on Her Role Choices
The actress, known for her role as Cassie Howard in 'Euphoria', opened up about her deliberate career choices in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. She explained that she selects characters that allow her to explore diverse life perspectives. "I think that I've chosen a lot of characters that I get to explore different versions of life and lose myself to," she said.
Addressing a common critique about her roles, Sweeney firmly dismissed the notion that her characters are predominantly sexualised. She pointed out that while Cassie's arc was culturally significant, her subsequent roles have broken that mold. "Eden wasn't, Reality wasn't, Americana wasn't, White Lotus wasn't. It's just whatever people want to talk about," she clarified, referencing her varied filmography.
Commitment to Craft: The 'Christy' Experience
Reflecting on one of her standout 2025 projects, the sports drama Christy, where she played a former professional boxer, Sweeney spoke about her total dedication. She shared that the recognition for her hard work feels deeply rewarding. "I put a lot of love and hard work into this, so it feels good that people are recognising that and that the story is resonating with people," the actress remarked.
As 2025 draws to a close, Sydney Sweeney's plan to embark on her first holiday journey symbolizes a moment of personal celebration. It marks a pause for the rising star before she dives into a new year filled with the buzz around 'Euphoria' Season 3 and her continuing evolution as a versatile performer in the entertainment industry.
