'Immaculate' hits theaters on March 22.
Sydney Sweeney is loving all of the "girl boss" praise she's receiving ahead of the release of her latest film, Immaculate.
ET's Denny Directo sat down with Sweeney -- who is a producer on the horror flick -- and shared the internet's reaction to her latest venture as she serves as both an executive and the lead in the film.
One tweet hails Sweeney as "saving the movies like a girl Tom Cruise," after comparing her dual roles for Immaculate to Margot Robbie's for Barbie.
"First of all, I love Margot. I think she's absolutely incredible and I hope I get to work with her one day," Sweeney said. "And I wanna do all my stunts like Tom Cruise, I wanna do all of it, a thousand percent. I am such an adrenaline junkie, I would do all of that."
She added, "There's no much negativity and hate online, so thank you for pointing out the positive."
As a producer on the film, the Euphoria star celebrated being a lead in the movie and having a seat at the table to "take action."
"Be a part of the conversation, be at the table, be at the head of the table," she said about the roles she took on as producer.
Immaculate stars Sweeney, Simona Tabasco, Álvaro Morte and Benedetta Porcaroli, and follows a nun named Cecilia (played by Sweeney) who joins a remote convent outside of Rome. However, her new adventure quickly turns into a nightmare when she discovers a dark secret in her new home.
Immaculate has been over a decade in the making, as Sweeney recalled auditioning for the role as a teenager, before the project was shelved, making the project more of a priority for her to finish.
"It has been a passion project, I just couldn't stop thinking about it," she shared. "I saw the movie in my head. I was so attracted to the character and her journey and pushing myself to new limits with that and I loved it."
The film premiered during this year's SXSW festival and received high praise.
"It was so crazy, so we premiered it at SXSW and it was such a great crowd," she told ET. "Everyone was so vocal, they were screaming, they were laughing, they were cheering. I remember just sitting there and was like, 'I really wish that my 16-year-old self could be here right now.' It was incredible."
