    Sydney Sweeney suffers "terrible stage fright"

    The Christy actress has been reluctant to take on a theatre role because of her crippling nerves, but stage veteran Ethan Hawke thinks she'd be great once she lets go of her fears.


    Speaking in conversation for Variety's Actors on Actors series, Sydney said when asked if she's interested in going on stage: "I have horrible stage fright. Terrible stage fright."
