In the wake of their wildly successful romantic-comedy "Anyone But You," Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney are being hailed as the newest dynamic duo in Hollywood. Powell expressed his pride in the film's ability to draw audiences to theaters for a love-focused storyline during an interview on "Sunday Today with Willie Geist." Now, Powell is eager to collaborate again with Sweeney, comparing their potential partnership to the likes of Julia Roberts and George Clooney, as well as Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson.
Powell described their collaboration on "Anyone But You" as a gamble that paid off, with both actors believing in the power of love as a selling point for audiences. The chemistry between Powell and Sweeney was so palpable that rumors of a real-life romance between them circulated. However, both have vehemently denied these claims.
The film centers around their characters, Ben and Bea, who pretend to be in a relationship despite their mutual dislike for each other, in order to please their friends and family. Powell credits Sweeney's intelligence for their successful portrayal of the dating rumors, but admits it was challenging for him due to dealing with a genuine breakup during the film's promotional tour.
Powell had recently ended his relationship with girlfriend Gigi Paris, further fueling speculation about his connection with Sweeney. In contrast, Sweeney is happily engaged to Jonathan Davino, which made it easier for her to embrace the rumors. Despite the personal upheaval, Powell emphasizes the authentic chemistry they share and the positive experience they had working together.
While their on-screen chemistry stirred controversy, Powell and Sweeney are actively searching for new projects to collaborate on. They aspire to cultivate a lasting creative partnership similar to that of other renowned Hollywood co-stars. The duo's desire to work in tandem reflects their deep trust and shared creative vision.
As Powell and Sweeney continue to make waves in the industry, fans can look forward to witnessing their captivating chemistry on the big screen once again. Their undeniable talent and magnetic connection have solidified them as the next burgeoning duo in Hollywood.
