Sydney Sweeney’s new thriller is a box office hit, and despite the actress starring in a few duds over the last couple of years, she has now cemented a positive streak. After her breakout role as the intense Cassie Howard on HBO’s Euphoria, Sweeney has become one of Hollywood’s brightest rising stars.
