When the Bard's timeless tales meet contemporary cinema's charm, expect nothing less than a rollercoaster of emotions! Sony offers a delightful tease with its upcoming romantic comedy, Anyone But You, bringing together Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell in a tale of pretense, passion, and perhaps... genuine affection? Directed by the acclaimed Will Gluck, Anyone But You is an artistic nod to William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing.
We follow the journey of Bea and Ben, essayed by Sweeney and Powell respectively. Former college mates, they find themselves attending a mutual friend's wedding in Australia. To deal with the discomfort of having their ex-lovers at the same event, the duo decides on a whimsical plan: to masquerade as a couple. But as is the nature of rom-coms, do sparks fly beyond mere pretense?
From mutual detest to mutual interest?
In a candid conversation at CinemaCon, Las Vegas, Powell humorously labeled Sweeney's Bea as "a real nightmare", while he described his character Ben as "a real a--hole." Dive deep, and the narrative becomes clearer. "As you can maybe guess, this movie is about two people that hate each other," Powell elucidates. But what happens when such fiery characters are thrown into the world's romance capital? One can only anticipate the hilarious and heartwarming adventures that ensue.
Stars in their element
Sydney Sweeney, with her impressive filmography including the popular series Euphoria and upcoming Marvel projects like Madame Web and Echo Valley, pairs up with Glen Powell, known for hits like Top Gun sequel and Devotion. Their combined on-screen chemistry is eagerly awaited by fans and critics alike. With a strong supporting cast comprising of Alexandra Shipp, Michelle Hurd, Dermot Mulroney, and others, the film promises to be a delightful cinematic experience.
Mark your calendars, rom-com aficionados! Anyone But You is set to sweep you off your feet, come December 15th.
