Following the success of their film Anyone But You, Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney are looking to do another rom-com movie together.
While speaking to Variety at the SAG Awards on Saturday, Feb. 24, Powell revealed he and Sweeney are reading scripts together for their next film project.
“When you find somebody that you really jive with, Sydney is so easy to work with and so fun,” Powell explained. “We’re definitely trying to find the next thing. Please send us all the scripts you got. You know we’re here for it. It’s been really wonderful to read a lot.”
Glen Powell also shared that Sydney Sweeney reads everything and in record time. “She’s the fastest reader I think I’ve ever met. It takes me a little longer, but we’re reading everything and just trying to see what makes sense, what we can turn into something that audiences are going to respond to.”
Meanwhile, Powell spoke about his upcoming action-packed film Twisters, which will be released next summer. “[I] met with Lee Isaac Chung and met with Daisy Edgar-Jones and had a great chemistry with Daisy and she’s sensational,” Powell shared.
“And we just have such a great vibe in this movie. The movie, just the texture of it, the fun of it, the world, it’s going to be a ride. It’s really good. It’s nuts.”
Powell added that having Steven Spielberg and Chris Nolan’s visual and special effects makes the project the best in terms of department heads. “And everybody has to work together and we’re out in the middle of Oklahoma with big jet engines and wind machines and destroying towns. The movie is going to be spectacular.”
Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney Previously Addressed Romance Rumors Following ‘Anyone But You’ Premiere
Just after the release of Anyone But You, Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney quickly addressed the romance rumors that started circulating. “I mean, we sold a rom-com,” Sweeney explained. “We were just filming a fun, amazing movie.”
Glen Powell pointed out that Sydney Sweeney has been an “internet sensation” for a while.
“This is my first leap into that. Any time you’re near Sydney, I realize you get the full force of her fame. But look, the best part about it is we truly love each other, and we respect each other. We had the greatest time making this thing.”
Sweeney also told Variety in mid-2023 that she and Powell didn’t really mind the romance gossip.
“It’s a rom-com! That’s what people want! Glen and I don’t really care. We have so much fun together, and we respect each other so much; he’s such a hard worker, and I’m a hard worker.”
