Last Updated:
Sydney Sweeney will next be seen in Michael Pearce's thriller film, Echo Valley.
Sydney Sweeney is gearing up for the release of her upcoming film, Echo Valley. The actress will share the screen space with the legendary Julianne Moore.
Sweeney recently made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she opened up about her ability to go from one extreme to the other while on set. When asked if she goes into her trailer to prepare and comes out in character, the actress said no and instead, 'I, like, jump in and out. It's kind of psychotic."
'Like, you're happy and fun, and then," Fallon cut in, and Sweeney finished the line, 'And then they say, 'Action!' and I'm screaming and crying. And then they call, 'Cut!' and I go, 'What's wrong?'"
In the same conversation, Sydney Sweeney also shared her experience of working with Julianne Moore. Describing her as the 'most incredible human being," the actress added, 'She's so kind and fun, and just amazing to work with."
When asked what it was like to 'get in those arguing scenes" with Moore, who plays her mother in the movie, Sweeney said, 'I felt so bad." She added, 'I did. 'Cause I am. I'm vicious. I'm really vicious."
Apart from Sydney Sweeney and Julianne Moore, Echo Valley also features Domhnall Gleeson, Kyle McLachlan, Fiona Shaw, Edmund Donovan and Albert Jones in key roles. The film is directed by BAFTA winner Michael Pearce and written by Emmy nominee Brad Ingelsby.
Echo Valley revolves around Kate (Julianne Moore), a mother grappling with her complicated relationship with her troubled daughter Claire (Sydney Sweeney). The story takes a dark turn when Claire appears at Kate's doorstep, covered in blood, setting off a desperate bid to uncover the truth and protect each other. The film explores themes of maternal love, sacrifice and survival.
Echo Valley will release on June 13 on Apple TV+.

Ginny & Georgia Season 3 called out for obvious age jump; fans can't ignore Austin's sudden glow-up: 'That's not a 9-year-old'
Ginny & Georgia Season 3 dropped on Netflix on June 5, and fans were excited to jump back into the drama-filled lives of Georgia, Ginny, and little Austin. The new season starts exactly where Season 2 left off, with Georgia being arrested for murder in front of her kids. But while the new season is being praised for its in-depth storyline and character development, one glaring mistake has garnered significant backlash. Fans noticed that in season 3, Austin suddenly looks way older, and the show doesn't mention any time jump at all. Austin's growth spurt is hard to ignore in Ginny & Georgia season 3 Austin is supposed to be nine years old in the story, but Diesel La Torraca, the actor who plays him, is now 14 in real life. Since there's no time skip in the show, his sudden transformation is pretty obvious on screen. Diesel even acknowledged this in interviews, saying the team used tricks like slouching, lowering his voice, and standing on apple boxes to make him look younger. Still, viewers could instantly tell that the young kid from previous seasons is now clearly a teen. Fans are having a field day with the age jump. The casting mismatch didn't go unnoticed. Fans quickly took to social media to react to the change, and many of the posts have been hilariously spot-on. Some fans joked that Austin now looks old enough to have kids of his own, while others compared the situation to sitcoms where characters age overnight. One user wrote, "I can finally say that #GinnyandGeorgia s3 is SO good. The work Brianne Howey is doing is Emmy-worthy. Felix Mallard is another standout. Show has leveled UP. Loved it start to finish (but we have to time jump eventually because Austin is about to be a 5th-grade senior citizen)". I can finally say that #GinnyandGeorgia s3 is SO good. The work Brianne Howey is doing is Emmy worthy. Felix Mallard another standout. Show has leveled UP. Loved it start to finish (but we gotta time jump eventually because Austin is about to be a 5th grade senior citizen). Another added, "Ginny and Georgia season 3 is kind of killing me. Like, who thought it would be a good idea to have a show take place in the same year but span over 3 seasons?" Austin's voice is actually killing me. Like, that's a middle schooler, not a 9-year-old." ginny and georgia season 3 is kinda killing me like who thought it would be a good idea to have a show take place in the same year but span over 3 seasons. austin's voice is actually killing me like thats a middle schooler not a 9 year old 😭😭 A third frustrated fan mentioned, "Netflix needs to just start cancelling shows if they're going to take literal years to start filming a new season, lmfaoooo. The time jump from season 2 to 3 of Ginny & Georgia was literally supposed to be like 3 days. Austin went from a 9-year-old to a 15-year-old in a WEEKEND?" netflix needs to just start cancelling shows if they're gonna take literal years to start filming a new season lmfaoooo the time jump from season 2 to 3 of ginny & georgia was literally supposed to be like 3 days, austin went from a 9 year old to a 15 year old in a WEEKEND? "Help, I can't watch season 3 of Ginny and Georgia because of the obvious puberty Austin is going through. He's trying to talk in a high-pitched voice, but it's not working," a fourth fan highlighted. Help i can't watch season 3 of ginny and georgia cause of the obvious puberty austin is going through 😭😂 hes trying to talk in a high pitched voice but it's not working Diesel La Torraca didn't shy away from the chatter about his glow-up. He posted a playful TikTok with co-star Connor Laidman, poking fun at how much both of them had grown since their last scenes. 'Y'all think I grew up,' he joked in the caption, showing just how noticeable the changes were for both Austin and Zach. About Ginny and Georgia The series first launched in 2021 and centres on Georgia, a young mom trying to start over with her two kids in the quiet town of Wellsbury, Massachusetts. The main cast includes Brianne Howey, Antonia Gentry, Diesel La Torraca, Felix Mallard, Sara Waisglass, Scott Porter, and Raymond Ablack. Season 3 took longer than expected to arrive. Although Season 2 wrapped filming in early 2022, the next chapter was delayed due to the writers' and actors' strikes. Production didn't resume until much later, making the return feel even more overdue for longtime fans.

Who is Sydney Sweeney, the Emmy nominated actress whose bathwater soap sold out in seconds?
Hollywood star Sydney Sweeney stirred the internet by releasing a soap—infused with her actual bathwater—which sold out in seconds. The limited-edition "Sydney's Bathwater Bliss," launched with Dr. Squatch, became a viral sensation, blending celebrity appeal with quirky marketing. (Screenshots: Instagram/sydney_sweeney) In the ever-surreal world of celebrity branding, few stunts have managed to scrub the line between fame and frenzy quite like Sydney Sweeney's latest headline-grabber. The Emmy-nominated star of Euphoria and The White Lotus —known for her raw talent, shapeshifting roles, and unapologetic persona—has now become the talk of the internet for something completely unexpected: bathwater-infused soap. Yes, you read that right. On June 6, 2025, a limited-edition soap bar titled Sydney's Bathwater Bliss went on sale in collaboration with men's grooming brand Dr. Squatch—and it sold out in literal seconds. Only 5,000 bars were made, and the demand crashed the website, overwhelmed waitlists, and sparked a resale frenzy on eBay, where bars are now listed for prices north of $1,000. But behind the bubbles is a story of how Sweeney—once just another promising young actress—has reinvented herself into one of Hollywood's most bankable and bold stars. Born in Spokane, Washington, Sydney Bernice Sweeney began her career humbly, appearing in TV guest spots on shows like 90210 , Criminal Minds , and Grey's Anatomy . Her breakout came in 2018, with a dual splash—playing the quirky Emaline in Netflix's Everything Sucks! and the haunting Alice in HBO's Sharp Objects . Soon after, she appeared in The Handmaid's Tale , followed by a small but notable role in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood . But it was her portrayal of Cassie Howard in HBO's Euphoria that transformed Sweeney into a pop culture force. With a role that demanded vulnerability, complexity, and courage (not to mention intense media attention due to its nudity and raw emotional arcs), Sweeney emerged as a Gen Z icon. Her performance earned her an Emmy nomination, and her turn as a sardonic college student in The White Lotus only cemented her acting credentials. From that point on, Sydney Sweeney was no longer a rising star—she was a household name. Fast-forward to summer 2025, and Sweeney's name is once again on everyone's lips—but this time, it's her bathwater that's making waves. Following a cheeky 2024 ad for Dr. Squatch in which Sweeney was shown soaking in a tub, fans began flooding the internet with one strange request: they wanted her bathwater. Rather than dismiss the absurdity, Sweeney leaned into the joke. 'You kept asking about my bathwater,' she posted on Instagram. 'So we kept it.' Enter Sydney's Bathwater Bliss , a bar soap made with a 'touch of Sydney's actual bathwater,' blended with pine bark extract, exfoliating sand, and aromatic notes of Douglas fir and moss. Described as 'medium-grit' and 'infused with the essence of the outdoors and Sydney's tub,' the product sold for $8 before becoming internet folklore. The soap launch wasn't just a gimmick—it was a masterclass in viral marketing. Sweeney herself pitched the concept and oversaw the creative process. 'It's weird in the best way,' she said in a press release. 'We created something unforgettable that actually smells incredible. Hopefully, this helps guys wake up to the realities of conventional personal care products and pushes them towards natural.' Critics may have scoffed, but Sweeney doubled down. Speaking to People on the red carpet of her upcoming film Echo Valley , she brushed off the backlash with characteristic cool: 'Honestly, though,' she quipped, responding to the idea that the soap might at least get more men to shower. Beyond the viral soap stunt, Sydney Sweeney has been quietly building an empire. She founded her own production company, Fifty-Fifty Films, in 2020. She's starred in indie thrillers like Reality , mainstream flicks like Madame Web , and romantic hits such as Anyone But You —which she also executive produced and helped cast. She's also dipping her toes (and, clearly, her bathwater) into brand partnerships, serving as a face for Armani Beauty and Laneige. She's hosted Saturday Night Live , starred in a Rolling Stones music video, and is set to appear alongside Julianne Moore in the psychological drama Echo Valley , releasing later this month. Sweeney's approach to fame has always blurred the line between performer and producer. Whether it's reviving a horror script she first auditioned for as a teen ( Immaculate ), or championing natural grooming products through tongue-in-cheek campaigns, she's proving that modern stardom is as much about audacity as artistry. Is Sydney's Bathwater Bliss a bizarre moment in internet culture, or a clever commentary on celebrity obsession and consumerism? Perhaps both. But what's undeniable is Sydney Sweeney's ability to control her narrative—one lather, line, and lead role at a time. She's not just bathing in fame. She's bottling it, branding it, and turning it into soap. And apparently, people can't get enough.
