Glen Powell (Top Gun: Maverick) and Sydney Sweeney (Euphoria and The White Lotus) continue to garner attention following the success of their romantic comedy Anyone But You. The chemistry between the leads, infectious soundtrack and humorous sequences made it a standout in its genre. Now, Powell reveals that the two are looking for new scripts to collaborate on again. In a recent interview, Powell shared his enthusiasm for working with Sweeney once again: "When you find someone you really get along with, working with Sydney is very easy and also a lot of fun. We're definitely trying to find the next thing."
In addition, the actor mentioned that they're reading scripts related to romantic comedies: "Send us all the scripts you have. You know we're here to read them. By the way, Sydney goes through them all in record time; I think she's the fastest reader I've ever met. It takes me a little longer, but we're reading everything and just trying to see what makes sense for us, what story we can turn into something interesting that the audience will respond to."
Anyone But You immerses us in the story of Bea and Ben, two characters who, after a series of confusions, find themselves in the peculiar situation of having to pretend to be a happy couple during a wedding. As they navigate this intriguing game of appearances, they both discover that love can emerge even in the most unexpected and deceptive terrains. In addition to the leads, the cast is rounded out by such talents as Darren Barnet, Alexandra Shipp and Dermot Mulroney.
Although officially, there is no project yet, the success of Anyone But You has secured a special place in the hearts of lovers of the romantic genre.
