Sweeney is also set to star in Tony Tost’s film “National Anthem,” playing Penny Jo Poplin. I’ve grown up watching them all and I’ve been engulfed in the entire world my entire life, so being able to be a part of that is such an incredible, incredible thing.” I’ve always been a really big fan of all of the Marvel and Sony Universe movies. I’ve been ordering a bunch of comic books,” she says. Is she reading the comic books the movie is based on? “I am. One of the roles she has lined up is in “Madame Web,” a comic-book tentpole set in Sony’s Universe of Marvel Characters. I want to continue to shock people with the characters that I play when they don’t expect that I would choose that next.” How does she choose? “I like to try and find characters that are challenging for me in multiple different ways, and are completely different from one another.

Is she comfortable with that or even see it as valid? “I get where they’re coming from. In some of the press about Sweeney, journalists have suggested that her characters in “Euphoria” and “The White Lotus” represent her generation in a way. I just think of her as a really fragile, damaged girl.” But Cassie, especially in the beginning, I never thought of her as scary.
