Between Zendaya and Sydney Sweeney, who’s a better actress on Euphoria?
In the HBO show, Zendaya takes on the role of Rue Bennett, a teenage girl who struggling with drug addiction.
Her substance abuse problem completely consumes her life.
Sydney plays the role of Cassie Howard, a teenage girl with low self-esteem and issues with deep-seated insecurity.
Her insatiable need for love stems from her fear of abandonment.
Zendaya and Sydney both show up and show out when taking on their respective roles in Euphoria with heartfelt emotion and believability.
They play their individual characters in a way that comes across as raw and real.
Fans of the show have been going back and forth about who does a better job on Euphoria, though.
Here’s what Euphoria viewers have to say about the comparison on different social media platforms, including Reddit.
One social media user asked, “Does everyone think Sydney Sweeney is the best actress on Euphoria? I do.“
Someone quickly responded by saying, “Zendaya is the best actress. She is very versatile. She impressed me a lot during the show.”
Someone else responded by saying, “I think Sydney is phenomenal. Her ability to just cry the way she does reminds me of Aaron Paul, aka Jessie Pinkman on Breaking Bad. So I love her as an actress and I hope she makes it big. However, Zendaya F-king KILLS it as a teenage addict. So as far as Sydney being the best actress on the show? No. Great actress? Yes.”
Another fan chimed in with, “Sydney ate up this role and left no crumbs. But it’s the crying-on-cue emotion type role. Zendaya also killed it.”
Someone else joined the conversation to say, “Sydney is one of the better actresses on the show, but personally, I prefer Zendaya as a much stronger performer with the material she was given.”
Another person who shares that sentiment wrote, “How can Sydney be the better actress when Zendaya has two Emmys off the show?”
A separate viewer who thinks Sydney is the best actress on Euphoria wrote, “She had a habit of standing out in small roles. Her performances were noted in Everything Sucks!, Sharp Objects, and The Handmaid’s Tale. She has no connections at all in this industry and rose on talent alone. I actually think her prettiness and physical features get in the way of people seeing her talent.”
Someone else who agrees that Sydney is the best added, “I’m a woman and I LOVE Sydney Sweeney. She’s an amazing actress and she’s incredibly beautiful. Talent and beauty usually go hand in hand with superstars.”
Another fan joined the chat to say, “Zendaya could do a Cassie breakdown, but Sydney could NEVER pull off a Rue rampage.”
The back-and-forth dialogue among Euphoria fans is neck and neck when it comes to fans who prefer Zendaya over Sydney, and vice versa.
Some believe that Zendaya is truly the better actress for her gritty and attention-grabbing style while others are convinced that Sydney genuinely deserves that title for her dazzling and captivating energy.
