From her Emmy-nominated turn in Euphoria to producing her own breakout hits, Sydney Sweeney has firmly stepped into her power as one of Hollywood’s most in-demand talents. 2025 is already shaping up to be a major year in her career, with a mix of completed films, highly anticipated roles, and buzzy projects in development. Here’s a look at what’s officially coming — and what’s still cooking — for the multi-hyphenate star.

Sydney Sweeney’s Upcoming Projects:

Echo Valley – June 2025

Sweeney stars opposite Julianne Moore in Echo Valley, a suspenseful mother-daughter thriller set on a rural Pennsylvania horse farm. Written by Mare of Easttown creator Brad Ingelsby and directed by Michael Pearce, the film follows Claire (Sweeney), who arrives at her mother’s home covered in blood, triggering a gripping emotional reckoning.

Echo Valley debuts in select theatres on June 6, 2025, followed by a global release on Apple TV+ on 13 June.

The Housemaid – December 2025

Adapted from Freida McFadden’s bestselling psychological thriller, The Housemaid casts Sweeney as Millie, a live-in employee who discovers chilling secrets inside her employer’s mansion.

Starring alongside Amanda Seyfried and directed by Paul Feig, the film is slated to premiere on 25 December 2025—positioning it for potential awards attention.

Scandalous! – In Development

Sweeney is set to portray Old Hollywood screen siren Kim Novak in Scandalous!, a biopic that explores Novak’s real-life romance with singer Sammy Davis Jr. The relationship, which took place in 1957 during the height of the Jim Crow era, sparked controversy and made headlines across America.

The film will be directed by Oscar nominee Colman Domingo, with no official release date yet confirmed.

Barbarella – In Development

Sweeney is also set to lead a reboot of the 1968 sci-fi cult classic Barbarella, with Edgar Wright attached to direct. While no production or release dates have been announced, Sweeney recently confirmed the project is actively in development and described it as “a long process — but it’s gonna be worth the wait.”

Euphoria Season 3 – Expected 2026

Fans of HBO’s Euphoria will have to wait a bit longer to see Cassie Howard back on their screens. While production began in early 2025, the release of Season 3 has officially been pushed to 2026 due to scheduling delays and creative rewrites.

Sweeney shared her excitement about returning to the character, calling Cassie “one of the most special characters for me” in a People interview.

Split Fiction – In Development

Also on the horizon is Split Fiction, a film based on the action-adventure video game of the same name. Sweeney will both star in and executive produce the project, which follows two writers trapped in a simulated world battling a corporate villain.

Directed by Jon M. Chu (WickedCrazy Rich Asians) and written by Deadpool scribes Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, the film is still in early development with no confirmed release window.

Conclusion:

Sydney Sweeney’s upcoming projects are the perfect snapshot of a star who isn’t just versatile — she’s strategic. With prestige dramas, edgy thrillers, and genre-defining reboots in the mix, her 2025 and beyond is stacked with promise. Whether she’s in front of the camera or behind it, one thing is certain: Sydney Sweeney is just getting started.
