Topline
The internet is ablaze with rumors of romance between Sydney Sweeney and newly single Glen Powell, stars of the upcoming rom-com Anyone But You, fueled by their evident offscreen chemistry, Powell’s breakup and dramatic developments discovered by obsessed fans: like Powell’s now-ex-girlfriend unfollowing Sweeney’s Instagram.
Key Facts
Sweeney and Powell co-star in Anyone But You, the forthcoming romantic comedy directed by Will Gluck, who also helmed rom-coms Easy A and Friends with Benefits.
Weeks of swirling romance rumors between the co-stars came to a head on Wednesday, when several outlets reported Powell and ex-girlfriend Gigi Paris had “amicably” broken up in early April, and Paris posted a video of herself walking on Instagram, captioned: “know your worth & onto the next.”
Celebrity gossip Instagram account DeuxMoi previously reported Paris and Powell’s relationship was on the rocks before filming began.
Pictures of the Sweeney and Powell laughing and cozying up together while filming, and a video of Sweeney sitting in Powell’s lap, have gone viral on social media.
Much of the online interest in Sweeney and Powell’s chemistry is because of their separate relationships: Powell had dated model Gigi Paris since 2020 before their breakup, and Sweeney became engaged to restauranteur Jonathan Davino in 2022.
The two actors have repeatedly posted pictures of them together on their Instagram accounts over the past few weeks, including one where they visited Taronga Zoo in Sydney, Australia, with Powell’s family.
Fans have analyzed the actors’ social media accounts for clues: Some noticed Paris reportedly deleted a supportive comment she left on an Instagram post Sweeney shared in January, and on Monday, Page Six reported Paris unfollowed Sweeney’s Instagram account.
Sweeney’s Instagram comment sections have been flooded with fan speculation and theories, with some comparing the romance rumors to her Euphoria character Cassie, who became notorious in the show’s second season for romancing her best friend’s boyfriend.
Sweeney and Powell displayed their chemistry while doing press for the film at Las Vegas’ CinemaCon on April 24: The two reportedly held hands while walking offstage, and in an interview, Sweeney called Powell “Top Gun,” a reference to his role in Top Gun: Maverick, to which he responded, “I love it when she calls me that.”
Key Background
Sweeney, 25, is best known for her roles in HBO shows The White Lotus and Euphoria, for which she scored two Emmy nominations in 2022. Powell, 34, has starred in such films as Set It Up, Top Gun: Maverick and Hidden Figures. The pair’s starring roles in Anyone But You were announced in January, and filming began just weeks later before wrapping in April.
Tangent
Sweeney and Powell are the latest pair of film stars to spark romance rumors because of palpable offscreen chemistry. Film critic Zoë Rose Bryant joked on Twitter the pair went to the “Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain school of promotion” because their chemistry is reminiscent of Isaac and Chastain, who went viral for their affection while promoting HBO’s “Scenes From a Marriage.” In one moment at the 2021 Venice International Film Festival, Isaac appeared to kiss and sniff Chastain’s inner arm on the red carpet. The two, who have been friends since they attended The Juilliard School together, previously starred together in A Most Violent Year (2014). Other famous examples of co-star romance rumors include Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper, who starred in the 2018 remake of A Star is Born. Many critics praised the film for their onscreen chemistry—but their offscreen chemistry generated much media interest, particularly their intimate performance of “Shallow” at the 2019 Academy Awards. In an interview with Jimmy Kimmel after the Oscars, Gaga said the pair wanted the audience to feel real romance because the film is a love story. One of Hollywood’s most famous former couples, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, also sparked relationship rumors on set—which turned out to be true and resulted in Pitt’s divorce from Jennifer Aniston. Pitt and Jolie met while filming Mr. and Mrs. Smith in 2004, where they later admitted they “fell in love” despite Pitt’s marriage, and the couple had their first child together by 2006. Some social media users joked romance rumors are indicative the movie will be good: “If a romcom has cheating allegations ahead of it, it’s gonna be a hit,” one user tweeted, garnering more than 132,000 likes.
What We Don’t Know
When Anyone But You will be released. Powell confirmed at CinemaCon the film will be released exclusively in theaters. A teaser of the film was shown at Sony Pictures’ CinemaCon presentation: The film reportedly stars the pair as former college frenemies who pretend to be a couple at a destination wedding before realizing their feelings for each other.
