Summary
Sydney Sweeney said rumors of a feud with Zendaya were driven by social media and press "spin," dismissing speculation that grew after the pair were rarely seen together and shared only one brief scene.
HBO scheduling was not the cause of Euphoria's delayed third season, Sweeney said, adding that she and the other main cast were all in first position and legally required to clear their schedules when filming began.
Four years passed between seasons, fueling claims that the breakout stars' packed calendars had stalled production; Sweeney said those narratives were false.
Cassie's final-season arc — including an OnlyFans storyline and a MAGA turn — also fed scrutiny of Sweeney herself, but she said viewers wrongly conflate her with the character and that she largely avoids social media.
