Sydney Sweeney appears on the Berlin hot list, and the buzz followed the “Euphoria” alum in The Hollywood Reporter’s February editorial. Her week has split between film meetings and Syrn promos. One description of her next role calls for ‘beauty, daring/hustle and sheer force of will.’ That line fits her momentum.
Meanwhile, the actor’s lingerie brand “Syrn” push has kept her in quick headlines. Yet her name also landed on Berlin’s dealmaker radar. With the European Film Market underway, she is tied to a buzzy prestige package.
Sydney Sweeney snags a spot in The Hollywood Reporter’s Berlin ‘Hot List’ after Syrn launch
According to The Hollywood Reporter‘s February 10, 2026, report, Berlin’s EFM is a key market gauge. The list spotlights packages seeking financing and buyers. Sweeney appears in “The Custom of the Country,” based on Edith Wharton’s novel. She is set to play Undine Spragg, an ambitious Midwest social climber. Josie Rourke is attached as writer-director. Also, StudioCanal is handling international sales.
Meanwhile, other hot list names include Charli xcx and Ethan Hawke. As a result, Sydney Sweeney’s Berlin hot list chatter tracks with active deal talks.
However, Syrn is keeping the actor-producer in a different lane online. The brand has leaned into glossy shoots and tight edits. It has also used quick teasers to keep followers watching. One post flagged a “Playful” drop date of February 17. Still, the pace of new content keeps the brand’s conversation active.
At the same time, Berlin buyers are once again leaning into adult dramas and literary adaptations. The market has also fed on recent international awards momentum. So clean packages can move quickly, even before cameras roll. Then, star power helps, especially for a “The Housemaid” lead with a producer credit. It also helps that she balances prestige with pop visibility. Ultimately, her week is two-track with the hot list appearance and Lingerie brand online chatter.
