Sydney Sweeney’s job requires her to mould herself into different characters instantly, and the shift from one role to another is not as smooth as it appears on the surface.
The 28-year-old actress opened up about her recent weight gain transformation for Christy and then a weight loss transformation right after to fit into her Euphoria character.
The Euphoria star shared, “I had to be really strict with myself. When I was training, it was really hard to put on all the weight,” in conversation with People Magazine.
Sweeney continued, “I was eating so much food. Like, everything you could possibly imagine. And then I was downing protein shake after protein shake and taking a lot of creatine, which just makes you bloat.”
However, soon after that, the Anyone But You actress had to lose the weight in under seven weeks before filming The Housemaid, and then Euphoria.
Thanks to her extraordinary metabolism, Sweeney was able to lose the weight in two weeks, she told the outlet, with a “super clean” diet and “a lot of cardio.”
The back-to-back transformations, she noted, taught Sweeney that she is able to transform her body into different characters, but she admitted “this might be the one and only” time she underwent such a drastic physical transformation for a role.
