Sydney Sweeney opened up about her first impression of Glen Powell.
The 27-year-old actress and the 36-year-old actor charmed audiences with their evident chemistry in their rom-com Anyone But You, which arrived in late 2023 and dominated box offices through the start of the year.
Glen went on to star in multiple successful projects this year, including Hit Man and Twisters, and was named as one of EW’s Entertains of the Year.
In honor of the accolade, Sydney penned a tribute to her costar, reflecting on their first meeting and their bond on set.

“The first time I properly met Glen Powell was over Zoom, and even through a screen, his warm, personable energy was palpable,” Sydney wrote. “He exudes charisma, passion, and an infectious love for storytelling that makes you lean in and want to be part of his world.”
She continued, writing, “From the very beginning, it was clear that Glen isn’t just a talented actor — he’s a force of nature and a true collaborator.”
Sydney described working with her costar as being “one of the most memorable experiences of [her] career.”
“On set, he’s not just a scene partner — he’s a real partner. He looks you in the eyes, and in that moment, you know you can do anything together. We trusted each other implicitly, and that bond translated into every frame of the film. And yes, I tested that trust — literally. I’d randomly throw trust falls at him just to see if he had my back. He never let me down,” she said.
The actress wrote, “I don’t know if I’ll ever have another experience quite like the one I shared with Glen. He made it special, and I’ll forever be grateful for the memories we created, both on and off screen. Glen Powell is a rare gem, and the world is lucky to have him, and I’m so happy for the recognition he so much deserves.”
