Anyone But You, the biggest rom-com in what feels like a generation, arrived with great fanfare on digital today and Collider is delighted to be working with Sony Pictures to give our readers an exclusive look at one of the special featurettes accompanying the movie on its release. The short clip, featuring actors from the movie, including starGlen Powell, highlights the “sweet"Sydney Sweeney, the film’s co-lead and, by all accounts, an absolute delight to be around.
The film sees the pair initially cross paths in a café, inadvertently clashing following a charming night out, which results in a chilly interaction during a reunion six months later. Destiny intervenes, drawing them back together at a wedding joining Sweeney’s sibling and Powell’s closest companion, where they strive to overlook their mutual aversion for the benefit of family and friends. You’ll never guess what happens when the pair start working together and realize maybe that initial spark wasn’t just a passing fancy. Primarily set in Sydney, Australia, the movie also showcases seasoned performersRachel GriffithsandDermot Mulroneyin secondary roles, alongside the likes ofAlexandra Shipp,GaTa, andDarren Barnet.
