As a long-time fan who has witnessed Sydney Sweeney’s rise from a supporting role in “The Handmaid’s Tale” to leading lady status, I must say that her fashion choices and acting talent continue to leave me in awe. The similarities between her character Eden’s outfit on the show and her red carpet look for “Eden” are uncanny – it’s like they’re connected by more than just a name!
For several years, the fame of actress Sydney Sweeney has been on a steady climb, making her a reliable talent in both TV and film. Besides being a bankable star, Sweeney is also known for her fashion sense, often tailoring her outfits to match each new project she’s promoting. The 26-year-old actress is currently embodying this approach for her latest movie, Eden, which, in my opinion, bears a striking resemblance to the style seen on The Handmaid’s Tale.
Prior to achieving stardom, Sweeney had roles on television shows such as Season 2 of The Handmaid’s Tale (available with a Hulu subscription). Interestingly, the character she played was named Eden, the same title as her upcoming movie directed by Ron Howard. She made a striking fashion statement promoting it at the Toronto International Film Festival, an event that took place in 1929. You can see her wardrobe choice here:
What a charming appearance! It seems like a contemporary interpretation of a timeless shape, featuring flowers embellishing the cape and gown she donned at the premiere of Eden. However, I must admit it bears a striking similarity to one of her outfits from The Handmaid’s Tale.
As I step foot in TIFF for the very first time, I can’t help but reminisce about my time spent in Canada during the filming of “The Handmaid’s Tale” Season 2. Back then, I was brought to life as Eden, who found herself in an arranged marriage with Nick, despite our significant age difference. Just like how my character donned a Gilead-issued wedding attire that bore striking similarities to the look sported by the actress from “Anyone But You” at the premiere of her own film titled “Eden”. Take a peek below to refresh your memory!
It seems quite striking to you, doesn’t it? The resemblance between Eden from the movie and Eden from “The Handmaid’s Tale” in their names and outfits is so strong that it makes one wonder if there could be a connection. Could it be Sydney Sweeney deliberately paying homage to both roles, or was she simply drawn to the caped look for her appearance at the Toronto International Film Festival?
Enthusiasts of “The Handmaid’s Tale” are anxiously awaiting the sixth and concluding season, which has started filming following a considerable hiatus. Unfortunately, Sweeney won’t be back as her character met her end in Season 2, but there’s a chance that characters who were killed by Gilead might be referenced before the series wraps up on TV. However, take heart because more tales from this world will be shared through the spinoff titled “The Testaments“.
In the movie titled Eden, director Ron Howard gathered an impressive ensemble of actors to collaborate with Sydney Sweeney on his production. Notably, Jude Law, Vanessa Kirby, Ana de Armas, and Daniel Brühl are also part of this survival thriller. It will undoubtedly be intriguing to discover who makes it through the movie until the end.
Although Eden made its debut at the Toronto International Film Festival, its broad theatrical release date remains undetermined. In the meantime, take a look at the 2025 film release schedule to help you plan your cinema visits for the upcoming year.
