Since the debut of the initial trailer for Anyone But You, it was evident that Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney shared a captivating on-screen presence, sparking widespread fan speculation about what might be happening off-camera. As you witness the duo hooking up and fighting in Anyone But You footage, the undeniable chemistry is palpable. However, both stars have consistently refuted the rumors, asserting that they are nothing more than speculation. In a recent interview, the Americana actress opened up about the toll the romance rumors took on both of them, especially considering they were both involved in other relationships.
The genesis of these rumors traces back to April, triggered when Glen Powell’s then-girlfriend Gigi Paris unfollowed the White Lotus star on Instagram following the posting of photos featuring the Top Gun: Maverick and the Everything Sucks! veteran from the set of their R-rated rom-com. The ongoing speculation allegedly contributed to Paris and Powell later breaking up. In an exclusive interview with Glamour, Sydney Sweeney shared insights into the toll these romance rumors took on Powell, revealing her genuine sadness about the situation. In her words:
It was really hard on Glen, which made me sad… because [otherwise] it was such a beautiful experience for the both of us. I care for him so much.
The speculation intensified when attention turned to Sydney Sweeney’s relationship with her fiancé, Jonathan Davino. A significant debate among fans ignited when Davino was spotted leaving their residence with bags, leading to speculation about a possible breakup. However, ET later reported that the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actress and her partner remain solidly together. In the same discussion with Glamour, the actress mused about the heightened interest in her love life, attributing it to the infrequency of public appearances with her real-life partner, a businessman and producer. She continued:
Also, I’ve never really shared that much [about my relationship], so the press loves to create drama in stories… Everyone is always so curious about who I’m with and what’s that like, but I think it’s important to have something for me. I’m very open [otherwise]. I talk about so much and sometimes it gets me in trouble, but I do try to keep something for me.
Understandably, A-listers like Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney prefer to maintain some privacy. Negotiating the dating rumors seemed challenging for them. Conversely, filming Anyone But You seems to have been a remarkably positive experience, with the Hidden Figures actor recently opening up about how “easy” his costar made the filming process. One can only hope the fun translates to the big screen.
