Sydney Sweeney’s dad and grandpa had to walk out after watching her in X-rated role

The actor’s family found some of her Euphoria scenes a bit too intimate to watch

While many parents will support their children’s endeavors, there’s some lines some family members won’t cross.

Anyone who has watched Euphoria knows that the show is filled with drug-use and sex, so it’s arguably not the type of show you’d want to watch with your parents

But what do you do when your child is the one in the show?

Well, this a dilemma that Sydney Sweeney‘s family faced as the actor has a handful of X-rated scenes in the hit HBO series.

With Sweeney now having quite the acting resume, her role on Euphoria meant that she had to ‘fight’ a bit harder for roles that were different.

She told Variety: “It’s the ones I have to fight for that usually are the ones that I want that are different, like Reality. I had to audition for it. I had to put myself on tape and send in my audition just like everybody else.”

Continuing, she added: “It was the same for White Lotus. They didn’t think that I was right for White Lotus, because I did Euphoria. So I put myself on tape, I auditioned for White Lotus just like everybody else and had a call back like everybody else.”

“I could get offered roles that are similar to the ones that I’ve played, but the ones that are different, the ones that surprise people that I do, are the ones that I usually have to fight for.”

The star may have had to persuade TV execs to see beyond her HBO role, but some of her family couldn’t even watch Euphoria.

During her appearance on Sunday Today With Willie Geist, the actor revealed that her family had been a little shocked by her risqué role.

Sweeney also admitted that some family members were less prepared than others, with her dad not visiting the Euphoria set.

“My mom visited me on set at the time, so she knew the story and I talked to her a lot about it — my dad didn’t,” she confessed, “Yeah, I didn’t prepare my dad. At all.”

Because of this, the actor’s father decided to watch the NSFW drama with other relatives, clueless about what they were about to watch.

“I mean, how do you bring it up in conversation? And also, when I talk to my dad, it’s usually not about work. We talk, like, father-daughter conversations. He decided he was going to watch it, without telling me, with his parents.”

Understandably, some were less than impressed.

“My dad and my grandpa turned it off and walked out,” she admitted, “But my grandma is a big supporter of mine. She’s a big fan of mine. Actually I bring her, usually, all over the world to my different sets and I make her an extra.”

You can’t win them all, Sydney!
