Last summer, the internet was rocked by rumors of mutual infidelity between co-stars Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell, all before we even knew the name of their rom-com, Anyone But You. Cozy videos and steamy on-set photos of the two, who were both in relationships, further fueled this narrative, as did Powell’s break-up from his long-time girlfriend a few months before the movie premiered. In hindsight, it was all a little too on the nose, so it probably won’t shock you to learn that it was all an elaborate ruse!
In a New York Times interview this week, Powell and Sweeney talked about wielding real-life flirtation to sell tickets and promote the movie. Gasp!
