Sydney Sweeney Reflects on ‘Madame Web’ Role, Strategic Career Moves, and Industry Connections

Sydney Sweeney, known for her recent role in ‘Madame Web’ alongside Dakota Johnson, addressed the film’s lukewarm reception and box office performance in a recent interview with British GQ. Sweeney approached her role in the movie like any other project, acknowledging her limited control over its outcome. “The movie is such a large production with numerous collaborators,” she explained. “As an actor, I simply bring a character to life. I can’t dictate its success, especially without a producer’s role. You sign up, you take the journey.”

Reflecting on ‘Madame Web,’ Sweeney emphasized its importance in fostering valuable industry connections. “For me, it was a stepping stone, fostering a relationship with Sony,” she elaborated. “This paved the way for future projects like ‘Anyone But You’ and ‘Barbarella.’ Every career move is strategic.”

Following her stint on ‘Saturday Night Live,’ where she humorously referenced her involvement in ‘Madame Web,’ Sweeney gears up for her next venture, ‘Immaculate,’ a horror film co-starring Michael Mohan.
