Sony Motion Picture Group Chairman has a few things to celebrate this weekend: Between the studio’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and the studio’s R-rated comedy No Hard Feelings, the studio counts four Golden Globe noms. But then there’s Sony movie, Anyone But You, which reps a return for romantic comedies to the big screen; that Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell title saw a 9% jump in its third weekend at the B.O. which is unprecedented for any title in the post-holiday season.
that was awkward.The Hollywood Reporter mistook “Top Gun: Maverick” star Glen Powell for Justin Hartley on the red carpet at Sunday’s 2024 Golden Globe Awards.“Glen Powell has arrived for tonight’s 2024 #GoldenGlobes ceremony,” the Hollywood Reporter posted on its X account (formerly Twitter).The caption was alongside a photo of Hartley dressed in a tan tuxedo and a black bow tie.Hartley, the former “This Is Us” star, is launching his new drama series, “The Scout,” Feb. 11 after the Super Bowl on CBS.Powell quickly jumped on the gaffe.“I think this is the perfect time to announce that @justinhartley and I will be starring in the most boring body-swap movie of all time,” he playfully retorted on X.THR’s post seems to have vanished shortly thereafter, though it did post two tweets about Harley’s arrival with his wife, Sofia Pernas.“Sometimes I feel beat up by it.
Zack Sharf Digital News Director Kate Hudson appeared on “The View” and reflected on the recent 20th anniversary of her iconic romantic comedy “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.” The genre has lost much its box office dominance in the decades since Hudson first linked up with Matthew McConaughey to the tune of $105 million at the domestic box office and $177 million worldwide. For comparison’s sake, the just-released rom-com “Anyone But You,” starring Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell, has earned a decent $38 million and counting worldwide.
Glen Powell gave Sydney Sweeney credit for leaning into the dating rumors while they promoted their rom-com, "Anyone But You."

Glen Powell has revealed in an interview with Vogue that a new Twister film is coming. It’s not a sequel and not a reboot of the 1996 film starring Helen Hunt and the late Bill Paxton.
Zack Sharf Digital News Director Glen Powell is currently showing off his leading man chops opposite Sydney Sweeney in Sony’s romantic-comedy “Anyone But You,” and he’ll keep getting the chance to do so in 2024 with Netflix’s “Hit Man” and Warner Bros.’ “Twisters.” The latter project attempts to turn the 1996 box office hit “Twister” into a new franchise — but don’t call it a reboot, says Powell.

The new romantic comedy Anyone But You, starring Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell, is now in theaters!
Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic A convincing romantic and erotic attraction, we can all agree, is one of the keys to a good rom-com. Do you believe these two people love each other? Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell definitely have that in “Anyone But You.” It begins with the simple fact that both are such splendid camera objects. She, with her goldfish eyes and pout of self-possession, looks like a more wised-up, no-nonsense Brigitte Bardot, while he, with his squinty eyes and killer grin, resembles Tom Cruise with a weird touch of the young Dustin Hoffman’s geek glamour.
In the realm of romantic comedies, certain tropes are so ingrained that they become almost expected, and Will Gluck‘s Anyone But You, co-written by Ilana Wolpert, comfortably nestles itself into familiar territory. The film, starring Sydney Sweeny and Glen Powell, with a supporting ensemble including Alexandra Shipp, GaTa, Hadley Robinson, Michelle Hurd, Dermot Mulroney, Darren Barnet, and Rachel Griffiths, is a classic case of somewhat funny, middle-of-the-road storytelling in the genre.
