Immaculate star Sydney Sweeney explains why the anticipated psychological horror film took so long to premiere and speaks about its polarizing themes that she believes will spark serious debates.Speaking with Variety, Sweeney revealed that the Immaculate script has been around for a decade, first auditioning for the upcoming blockbuster when she was a teenager. While the film has changed considerably since its initial draft, the movie still features several conversation-starting themes sure to engage audiences. “So the script has been around for 10 years — I auditioned for it when I was 16. And it was a very different draft. I called the writer, Andrew Lobel, and got the clean, original draft, then reworked it to fit who I am today, keeping a lot of the same themes and storylines. And one of the biggest ones that carried over was something innately in the project that, sadly, is still a topic of discussion today,” she said.Sweeney joined the Immaculate cast in late 2022, with principal photography taking place in Rome and concluding in February of last year. The Madame Web star also serves as a producer on Immaculate, which premiered at South by Southwest (SXSW) in Texas earlier this month. Early reviews for the horror flick have been encouraging as it boasts a 71% critical rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Sweeney’s performance earning widespread praise.
