Also starring in the new season of Euphoria, Sydney Sweeney is one of the hottest actresses of 2026. Here is her full biography and net worth.
On April 13, 2026, the third season of Euphoria, a highly successful American TV series, will debut on Sky Atlantic and stream on NOW. Among the most anticipated stars is Sydney Sweeney in the role of Cassie Howard.
The American actress is riding high for her many roles in film and TV in recent years, so much so that she has earned the title of a rising star in Hollywood.
She has also made headlines for her Republican political stance, which has reached President Donald Trump directly. She even received congratulations for the American Eagle commercial in which she starred, which was the center of controversy for the tagline “Sydney Sweeney has great jeans” which, according to critics, sounded like a controversial “Sydney Sweeney has great genes.”
Let’s take a look at who is the American actress, her complete biography, her net worth, and her earnings throughout her career.
Sydney Sweeney’s Biography and Career
Sydney Bernice Sweeney was born on September 12, 1997 in Spokane, Washington. She grew up in a lake house in the Idaho Panhandle with her father, Steven, who works in the healthcare industry, and her mother, Lisa, a former criminal defense attorney.
Before pursuing acting, Sweeney played several sports, including soccer, baseball, skiing, wakeboarding, and mixed martial arts. She was also a member of the robotics team and the math club at her high school.
To pursue an acting career, first had to convince her parents. And she did it with a detailed, five-year business plan.
She started at a young age with small roles in TV series like Criminal Minds, Grey’s Anatomy, and Pretty Little Liars, before moving to the big screen in 2009 with the independent horror film ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction.
But fame came in 2018, when she landed her first prominent roles in the series Everything Sucks!, Sharp Objects, and The Handmaid’s Tale. Her definitive breakthrough came the following year with HBO’s call for Euphoria: her role as Cassie Howard earned her her first Emmy nomination in 2022.
From there, Sweeney began a rapid rise in both TV and film. In 2019, Quentin Tarantino called her for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and in 2021, she starred in White Lotus, playing Olivia Mossbacher, earning her second Emmy nomination.
Sweeney recently starred in the adaptation of Freida McFadden’s bestseller The Housemaid, the thriller Echo Valley, the boxer biopic Christy, and the remake of Barbarella.
Sweeney has also distinguished herself and become a pop icon outside of acting. In the beauty and fashion industries, she has become a global spokesperson for Armani Beauty, Miu Miu, and Laneige, as well as collaborating with American Eagle and Ford.
In music, the Rolling Stones cast her as the star of their 2023 music video “Angry.”
One of Sweeney’s passions is classic cars, a true hobby she cultivates with her own hands. Her most famous restoration project is a cherry-colored 1969 Ford Bronco, documented in full on her secondary TikTok channel @syds_garage. She recently added a 1965 Ford Mustang and a vintage Porsche 911 to her collection.
She has said that working on cars is a form of therapy for her and that the garage is a place where she can turn off her phone, focus on a mechanical problem, and then fix it herself.
