‘Euphoria’ director talks about Sydney Sweeney ‘strange’ storyline

‘Euphoria’ director is responding to the show’s distasteful storyline for season three.

Creator Sam Levinson answers the thought behind actress Sydney Sweeney’s problematic character development, as her role creates a havoc amongst audiences

“[Cassie] has got her dog house and her little dog ears and the nose, and that has its own humor, but what makes the scene is the fact that her housekeeper is the one filming it,” Levinson told the Hollywood Reporter,

“What we wanted to always find is the other layer of absurdity that we’re able to tie into it so that we’re not too inside of her fantasy or illusion — the gag is to jump out, to break the wall.” 

Meanwhile, Marcell Rév, the show’s director of photography adds: “An obvious choice would’ve been something modern and very plain and fancy, but we ended up choosing this mid-century home, which is a little tacky, but also stuck in the ‘70s,” Rév explained.

“It’s probably a strange choice, but also it gives us possibilities,” he noted.
