Sydney Sweeney says it will be "bittersweet" to finish filming on the third season of Euphoria.

The 28-year-old actress plays Cassie Howard in the acclaimed HBO teen drama series and is ready for an "emotional" end to production on what is expected to be the show's final season.

Speaking at Variety's Power of Women ceremony on Wednesday (29.10.25), Sydney said: "It's gonna be a really bittersweet moment.

"I'm kind of terrified for how emotional it's gonna be. It's been such a journey. It's been my entire twenties. They've been my family and friends for so long. I've been forever grateful for all of them."

The Immaculate actress added: "I was 20 when I did the pilot, so being able to see a lot of the same people, it feels very comforting."

Sweeney's Euphoria co-star Jacob Elordi previously revealed that he enjoyed the "liberating" experience of filming season three and praise the show's creator Sam Levinson for "constructing something that's incredibly clever and cinematic".

The Australian actor said: "It was incredible, man.

"It was incredibly liberating. I got to play something so sort of far out from what I've done before."

However, the Saltburn star isn't actually sure about what happens in the third season.

Jacob said: "Everybody shoots at different storylines. I don't know what anyone else is doing. I had a really singular storyline. You don't know what the other story lines are.

"It's like FBI files. So it's great because I'll get to consume the show the same way that everybody else does as a fan, which I haven't been able to do before. I'm really excited."

Meanwhile, Sydney revealed that she found it very emotional to return to the Euphoria set following the death of co-star Angus Cloud - who passed away aged 25 in 2023 after a drug overdose.

She told Variety: "It was definitely a very emotional experience to go back to a set and not have him be there with you. He was such a special person, and he was taken way too young."

Sydney leaned on her family and her co-stars after Angus passed away.

The Christy actress said: "I’m glad I was home because I was surrounded by my family.

"I think my first call was Maude (Apatow), and then Jacob, and we were all just crying on the phone together. It’s not something you want to bring people back together over, but I’m thankful to have my castmates to be able to process all of that together."
