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.

American Eagle says Sydney Sweeney ad 'is and always was about the jeans'
American Eagle Outfitters responded to backlash over its recent ads featuring actress Sydney Sweeney, saying their campaign "is and always was about the jeans." The retailer generated widespread scrutiny this week after launching its denim-focused fall campaign that featured Sweeney. The tagline read: "Sydney Sweeney has great jeans." Many online accused American Eagle of promoting eugenics, " white supremacy" and " Nazi propaganda" with the campaign, implying that the company was also promoting the genes of a white, blonde woman with its play on words. "Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color," Sweeney says in one of the video clips, before the camera pans up to her blue eyes. "My jeans are blue." . "Her jeans. Her story," the post read. "We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone." Representatives for Sweeney did not immediately respond to a request for comment regarding the brand's new statement. Sweeney has not publicly commented on the backlash to the campaign. The celebrity, who rose to fame thanks to starring roles in "The White Lotus" and "Euphoria," appeared in more than a dozen posts on American Eagle's Instagram before the company swapped the featured model.

In the spot, Sweeney touts herself for having great jeans – a play on the actress' genes. Other billboards for the campaign show her painting over the statement 'Sydney Sweeney has great genes' with 'jeans.' Some online have called the ad tone-deaf saying it celebrates her whiteness and thinness. Many viral comments deriding the ad brought up arguments that it's not only subtly promoting white supremacy but also eugenics, and nazi and master race propaganda. This outcry led to right-wing pundits and even the White House commenting on the issue. Trump's communication manager Steven Cheung called the reaction 'cancel culture run amok.' 'This warped, moronic and dense liberal thinking is a big reason why Americans voted the way they did in 2024,' he wrote on X. 'They're tired of this bulls–t.'
