‘Everyone Knows She’s Talented, Magnetic And Beautiful,’ But Glen Powell Reveals What Makes Sydney Sweeney A True ‘Movie Star’ And ‘Friend’

The best Smart DNS for watching movies abroad.

Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell revived the rom-com genre with $100 million hit Anyone but You. They truly are strong rom-com partners, who need to make another movie. But, as great as they are on screen, their off-camera relationship is also sweet. If there was further need for proof of what a strong friendship these two have, Powell revealed his take on what makes Sweeney a true “movie star” and “friend.” And these sentiments are very sweet.

The Euphoria star truly has had a fantastic year. Other than her surprise box office success with Anyone But You, Sydney Sweeney had a great time hosting SNL in March and starred in and produced the horror movie Immaculate. With all of her great accomplishments this year, Glamour saw fit to crown the 27-year-old starlet Woman of the Year! Glen Powell was interviewed as part of Sweeney’s cover story and emphasized the importance of the humanity she brings to her work:

She’s a total renaissance woman. I’ve never met someone who has an aptitude for so much. But the thing that really makes her a movie star, or a Glamour Woman of the Year, is that she’s able to effortlessly move through this world and be convincing in all these different things but also maintain her humanity. I think people feel that onscreen. Everybody knows she’s talented and magnetic and beautiful, and all those things, but I think her heart’s going to be what takes her the distance.

Isn’t that sweet? It’s true that with each role Sydney Sweeney has performed, it’s easy to see all of the passion she infuses into her alter egos. That’s something that makes her so compelling and lovable when she’s on screen. For instance, in Sweeney’s HBO productions, like The White Lotus and Euphoria, she’s incredibly capable of bringing humanity to her characters, even if they’re unlikable.

Glen Powell, like many of us, knows just how talented and gorgeous Sydney Sweeney is. But the Twisters actor also provided some keen insight into what kind of person the Big Time Adolescence star is when the cameras aren’t rolling:

As a friend, she’s so thoughtful. Sometimes, the perception of people when they’re incredibly ambitious or business-minded can be that they neglect other things in their life. She’s just the opposite. The people that are in her world, in her court, she’s known for taking care of them. She’s the type of person that remembers birthdays and remembers your favorite dessert and your mom’s favorite dessert…. She’s just a very thoughtful, very present human being.

With all the sweet praise that Glen Powell gave Sydney Sweeney, it’s no wonder he that he wants to work with her again after Anyone But You. In fact, Powell revealed that he and Sweeney are currently planning their next movie together. The Hit Man actor has compared their relationship to George Clooney and Julia Robert’s, and I can’t disagree with the similarities. When two actors have really great chemistry and a successful working relationship, it makes sense to keep pairing them up.

As for Glamour’s Woman of the Year, she’ll continue to be a “true movie star.” She told the outlet that she plans to “just keep working.” Sydney Sweeney is indeed booked and busy, as she’s working on her female boxing biopic on Christy Martin and collaborating with Ana de Armas in Ron Howard’s Eden. All the while, keep up with the schedule of 2024 movie releases so that you know what’s heading to theaters soon.
