Her 2024 horror film Immaculate has become a streaming sensation on HBO Max, reaching No. 1 across most of Latin America and beyond.
The movie, which is rated R for its violence and nudity, sees Sweeney play a novice nun who joins a remote Italian convent but soons discovers that it hides some sinister secrets.
Immaculate only made $35million at the box office in 2024, but it was considered a hit due to its small budget of just $9million.
Some viewers are now discovering the movie for the first time on streaming services like HBO Max, with many praising Sweeney’s performance.
‘I can’t believe people say she’s not talented just because they don’t like her… Immaculate plus Christy show how dedicated and gifted she is,’ one fan gushed.
‘You can think Alexa Demie should have had a bigger career but you can’t watch things like Reality or Immaculate and think Sydney Sweeney doesn’t deserve what she has,’ argued another.
A third wrote, ‘Sydney Sweeney’s performance in Immaculate is surreal; she perfectly conveys the despair and terror of a woman being used by diabolical beings. What an incredible actress!’
Sweeney produced Immaculate alongside director Michael Mohan, who she previously worked with in the 2021 erotic thriller The Voyeurs.
The success of Immaculate comes after The Voyeurs also went viral on streaming services, indicating that Sweeney and Mohan have a knack for producing hits together.
Loosely inspired by Alfred Hitchcock’s classic Rear Window, The Voyeurs follows a young couple, played by Sweeney and Justice Smith, who start spying on their exhibitionist neighbours having sex.
What begins as an act of voyeurism soon spirals out of control as the two couples become intertwined in each other’s lives – with dire consequences.
The film is by far the sauciest of Sweeney’s career, with the blonde bombshell going topless multiple times and even baring all for a sizzling sex scene that leaves nothing to the imagination.
The salacious thriller was a flop with critics, but it ended up amassing a following with viewers after making its way to the free streaming service Tubi for a period of time.
It recently went viral on social media after a popular movie account on X (formerly Twitter) posted, ‘The plot twist in this movie was a 10/10.’
‘Sweeney got famous from the movie The Voyeurs on Amazon Prime and that movie was basically a glorified [adult movie],’ commented one viewer.
Another wrote, ‘What a thriller… starts like an [adult movie] but shakes you up in the last 20 mins.’
Meanwhile, Sweeney found herself in hot water this week after covering the iconic Hollywood sign in Los Angeles in bras as part of a publicity stunt to promote her upcoming lingerie line.
According to TMZ, the Housemaid star was spotted ‘scaling’ one of the massive white letters, late in the evening, as a production crew filmed the moment.
Video obtained by the outlet showed Sweeney climbing what looks like the ‘H’ before hanging a makeshift clothesline of bras across the landmark.
Sources told TMZ the footage was shot to promote the launch of Sweeney’s new lingerie brand, which is backed by billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and that the actress had obtained a filming permit prior to the stunt.
