When Sydney Sweeney got fake blood in her eye


In a recent conversation with Indiewire, Immaculate director Michael Mohan revealed how Sydney Sweeney powered through what must have been a rather painful scene to weather. The reason behind the pain, was the actress getting fake blood in her eye. However, the actress and producer insisted that the cameras keep rolling till she gets the shot.

He said, "We wanted to do everything practically. The biggest challenge was on the last take. Sydney got blood, fake blood, in her eye, and it was stinging her, but we hadn’t nailed the take, and she was actually in quite a lot of pain. But she’s my boss, and she was like, ‘Keep shooting, Mike. Keep shooting until you get this.' We didn’t reset or anything. We kept the camera rolling, and I think it was the third take where we finally got the perfect take...but the pain in her voice was because she’d gotten fake blood in her eye..."
