As a long-time fan of both Sydney Sweeney and Colman Domingo, hearing their upcoming collaboration in “Scandalous” has me beyond excited! Their roles in this Miramax drama, with Sweeney playing Kim Novak and Domingo making his directorial debut, promises to be a captivating portrayal of love under scrutiny.
Sydney Sweeney and Colman Domingo are part of the cast for the TV series “Euphoria”, with Sweeney portraying high school student Cassie and Domingo playing N.A. sponsor Ali. For now, both actors are expected to return to their roles in the third season of the popular HBO show, filming scheduled for 2025. On a different note, these talented individuals have an upcoming project: Miramax drama “Scandalous”, which will be Domingo’s directorial debut. Currently, there is speculation about how this new movie might affect their responsibilities on the previously mentioned show.
The movie titled “Scandalous,” by Colman Domingo, focuses on the romantic relationship between musician Sammy Davis Jr. and actress Kim Novak. Actress Sydney Sweeney is cast as Novak, while David Jonsson from “Alien: Romulus” will portray Davis. With this intriguing project in mind, some fans might question how it aligns with the scheduling of “Euphoria” Season 3. To assuage concerns, Primetime Emmy winner Domingo clarified to Deadline that scheduling conflicts should not be a worry for devoted fans of the teen drama.
Our goal is to shoot it right after we’re both done with Euphoria, so hopefully I’ll go into prep right after that next year, probably in the third quarter of next year. And then hopefully we’ll make a beautiful, sweet film that’s really about the possibility of love, but under many eyes, trying to have privacy, trying to have love, trying to have a life. And I think it’s something that Sydney and I both know very well. We’re trying to advocate for your humanity again in your life.
It’s great news to learn that the movie will begin production once HBO’s critically acclaimed drama wraps up its work. I’m particularly excited about the hint dropped by the Rustin lead actor about his upcoming film. Given the intense dramatic scenes that Sydney Sweeney portrayed in Euphoria Season 2, I can’t wait to see her apply those acting skills to a meaty role like this one.
Regarding the actress from Anyone but You, it’s not just her role as Kim Novak in the upcoming project, she’s also serving as a producer. Moreover, she managed to get Colman Domingo on board as the director for this new venture. In an interview, the actor from Fear the Walking Dead acknowledged this and expressed his appreciation.
It’s fantastic that Sydney Sweeney, as a producer, invited me to direct this project. She was the one who got it, and she pondered over who would be an ideal director for her vision. Eventually, she considered me. Upon reading the script, I had some suggestions and ended up rewriting the entire first page. Luckily, she appreciated it. So, we began collaborating closely, discussing potential elements for our project, which is a unique take on a fractured love story between Sammy Davis Jr. and Kim Novak.
Interestingly, Sydney Sweeney and Colman Domingo don’t interact on screen in the Sam Levinson-produced show. However, I’m delighted they’ll get to work together more closely through their upcoming film. It’s fortunate that this collaboration is taking place after wrapping up filming for the Emmy-winning TV series.
In March, it became known that HBO had postponed Euphoria Season 3, leaving some fans questioning whether the series would eventually resume after wrapping up in 2022 or if it might even be canceled. However, recent developments suggest otherwise as production will commence in January 2025 and conclude by summer. Most of the original cast members will reprise their roles, except for Storm Reid, who recently confirmed that she would no longer be part of the show.
As a gaming enthusiast, I’m stoked that Sydney Sweeney and Colman Domingo, despite their commitments to “Euphoria,” are keeping themselves busy with their upcoming project, “Scandalous.” Even though they’ve got a full plate, it’s reassuring to know they’re teaming up. In the interim, grab your Max subscription and dive into the first two seasons of their HBO show right away!
