Sydney Sweeney Would Like To Play Barbie's Sister in Movie Sequel
In a recent interview with Bustle, Sydney Sweeney shared her thoughts on joining a potential Barbie sequel. The 27-year-old was asked about the possibility of being cast in a follow-up to Greta Gerwig's 2023 blockbuster. While she didn't confirm any involvement, she was open to the idea of being a part of the franchise.
Sweeney said, 'I'd have to read a script, but I'm a huge, huge fan of Margot [Robbie], so I would not be opposed to it.' During the conversation, the interviewer also suggested the actresses could play sisters in a future film. Sweeney also agreed that the idea could be fun to explore.
The Anyone but You star's remarks come as excitement continues to build around the possibility of a sequel to Barbie, following the film's massive success. Released in 2023, the movie earned over $1.4 billion globally and starred Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling in the lead roles.
The actress also spoke about her return to the set of Euphoria in the interview, where she plays Cassie. She described the experience of returning for the third installment as feeling like a 'reunion.' She said, 'I'm so happy to be back. It feels like I'm with my OG family. We've been doing this since I was 20 years old. There are many crew members who are still here from Season 1 and Season 2.'
Sweeney also talked about the unpredictable production schedule of the television series, which makes it difficult to plan ahead. She said, 'If I have time, then I try to go home to Idaho, see my family, go slalom skiing, and just hang out with my dogs. I love a low-key summer.'
The third season of Euphoria is currently in development and is expected to premiere in 2026.

Sydney Sweeney's ‘Americana': Do Rotten Tomatoes Reviews Laud The Film?
Sydney Sweeney's new dark crime comedy Americana is new in theaters this weekend. How are Rotten Tomatoes critics reacting to the film amid the actor's American Eagle commercial controversy? Written and directed by Tony Tost, Americana opens in limited release in theaters on Friday. The film surrounds a rare Native American artifact and how various groups clash to gain possession of it. The official summary for Americana reads, 'After the artifact falls onto the black market, a shy waitress with big dreams (Sydney Sweeney) teams up with a lovelorn military veteran (Paul Walter Hauser) to gain possession of it, putting themselves of the crosshairs of a ruthless criminal (Eric Dane) working on behalf of a Western antiquities dealer (Simon Rex). 'Bloodshed ensues when others join the battle, including the leader of an indigenous group (Zahn McClarnon) and a desperate woman fleeing her mysterious past (Halsey).' As of Thursday, Rotten Tomatoes critics have given Americana an 83% 'fresh' rating based on 18 reviews. RT's Consensus, audience summary and Popcornmeter score based on verified user ratings are still pending. How Are Individual Critics Reacting To 'Americana'? Ben Kenigsberg of The New York Times is among the top critics on RT who gives Americana a 'fresh' rating, calling the film in his review summary 'a slick and skillful debut feature from the writer-director Tony Tost.' Valerie Complex of Deadline Hollywood Daily also gives Americana a 'fresh' rating on RT, writing, 'Tony Tost's direction manages to avoid the common pitfalls first-time directors encounter by overcomplicating things, but the director keeps it simple by letting characters work within their frame.' Justin Lowe of The Hollywood Reporter is also lauding Americana, writing in his 'fresh' review summary on RT, '[Tony] Tost's portrayal of characters driven by unfettered greed or justifiable need gives voice to often-ignored segments of society as they strive for agency and respect — an admirable quality in any narrative genre.' Among Americana's detractors on RT is Johnny Oleksinski of The New York Post, who calls the film in his 'rotten' review summary 'a copycat Coen Brothers yarn with the depth of a tortilla.' Also giving the film a 'rotten' review on RT is Tim Grierson of Screen International, who writes, 'Americana wants to present forgotten everyday people who possess endearingly unusual traits. But Tost's writing is not sharp enough to allow his characters to rise above their mannerisms.' Nick Schager of The Daily Beast also slams Americana in his rotten review summary on RT, calling the film 'a sluggish and monotonous country-ified neo-noir that fails to innovate and, worse, to utilize its magnetic leading lady and her capable co-stars.' Rated R, Americana, starring Sydney Sweeney, Paul Walter Hauser and Halsey, opens in limited release in theaters on Friday.

Makeup Metaphors To Replace Sports Talk With At Work
If you're a woman in business, a woman in a male-dominated workplace, or simply just, a woman, you've probably heard one or two sports metaphors overused at work. There's nothing particularly wrong with sports lingo — They're fun! It works! — but sometimes, they are What would it look like if the metaphors were pulled from a different kind field? Like, say, makeup? That's exactly what Ari Kraemer, a 32-year-old marketing professional from Minneapolis, decided to explore. In a viral video, which has since racked up over 3 million views and 401,000 likes, Ari hilariously reimagined what office talk would look like if makeup metaphors replaced the usual sports clichés. "I know we want to move forward with this, we adding the foundation before the primer here?" Ari began in the video. "I'm seeing buying signals, too, but the deal's not over 'til we add our setting spray," she continued with another metaphor idea. "I want to make sure we're finding that balance between dewy and greasy." Ari said she was inspired to come up with makeup metaphors after attending a work seminar where the speaker couldn't refrain from using a sports metaphor every other minute. "It kept distracting from his point," she told BuzzFeed. "My female colleague and I joked about it, and I thought, why not flip the script? Why do we always default to sports and war when talking about business?" Without too much thought and her phone camera in hand, Ari posted the skit on a whim, and it instantly caught on. In the comments, thousands of people loved the idea. "See this is what the Barbie script was missing," one person wrote. "Great analysis of how gendered language is," another said. Of course, the feedback prompted Ari to share more makeup metaphor ideas. Such as, "Yeah, I think that's good for now. Let's let this bake, and we'll dust off tomorrow." And, "You're trying to add the lashes before the glue's even tacky." Or, "We can't dry shampoo our way out of this. This is gonna require a full wash." And lastly, "Look, I just feel like we're highlighting without structure. Where's the contour here?" In the comments, people couldn't resist sharing their own: "we're aiming for a natural glow, not a full beat." "I think we're veering on blush blindness with this, let's scale back." "Let's make sure there's no lipstick on our teeth before the meeting." "The client wants Charlotte Tilbury quality on an NYX budget." "We're already cutting it close. Now's not the time to add a winged liner." Everyone's pretty much saving these in their back pocket for later. "This is the matriarchy I want to live in," one person wrote. Some see this as a way to flip the script and take some power back. "I need a skit now of a room full of women talking this way with a confused male coworker lmaooo," one said. "YES, and then when a man doesn't understand you can just belittle him for not understanding [every] metaphor." Ari said she's already started replacing metaphors at work. "I love slipping them into meetings," she told BuzzFeed. "They get either knowing laughs or blank stares from non-makeup-wearers. It's a fun role reversal. Some of the guys I work with have started catching themselves overusing sports analogies, and have been able to poke fun at themselves." She said others have reached out to her to start switching up their workplace lingo, too. "I've heard from over 100 women who've tried the metaphors at work at this point. And guys have chimed in, too, saying they're tired of the sports talk and fully support switching it up," she said. As for what she hopes comes from her makeup metaphors, Ari explained, "I hope it sparks more awareness about how language can include or exclude, especially in a professional setting. Language should reflect a wider range of interests and identities." Well, I'm genuinely thinking about how I can insert these into my everyday life. What others can you think of? Let us know in the comments. Ari has since turned her viral 13-second skit into a small book collection of 50 makeup metaphor phrases, titled Touching Up. You can also keep up with Ari on TikTok and Instagram.
