According to Bowen Yang , Sydney Sweeney was “game” for anything during her March 2024 viral “ SNL ” hosting gig. Yang said during First We Feast’s “Hot Ones” that he at first was concerned about the “Bowen Straight” sketch needing an intimacy coordinator. The skit has Sweeney finding out Yang is straight, and then having an affair with the openly queer cast member.
Yet Sweeney assured Yang that “ Euphoria ” more than prepared her for their onscreen “SNL” intimate scene. “Pitching ‘Bowen Straight’ to Sydney Sweeney was really fun,” Yang said. “I just remember being like, ‘We’re going to need an intimacy coordinator for this and it’s going to be completely up to your comfort,’ and then she was like ‘Bowen, I’m on “Euphoria,” it’s not going to be anything.
’ So that was really fun and she was so game for it and she was wonderful.” Sweeney will reprise her role of Cassie for “Euphoria” Season 3. Sweeney previously told Who What Wear that she is looking forward to returning to the series after a hiatus.
“I actually like [the delay] because there’s so much room for growth for both me as a person and also Cassie as a character,” Sweeney said, while teasing of the upcoming storyline, “It’s going to be very, very wild.” “Euphoria” Season 3 will now go into production in January 2025 and consist of eight episodes. Meanwhile, Sweeney is also portraying boxer Christy Martin in David Michôd’s biopic, appears.
