Anyone But You, director Will Gluck’s new edgy romantic comedy starring Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell, has charmed its way to the global box office.
The film opened in the United States just before Christmas. It opened in several overseas markets over the weekend, including in the United Kingdom and Australia, where the film is primarily set. Anyone But You has earned a total of US$33.5 million, with a few markets still lined up for the film’s opening, including Spain, France, Italy, and the Philippines, where it opens in cinemas Jan. 17, 2024.
“I think audiences want to see movies that are relevant, authentic, and cinematic – but most of all, fun,” says Gluck, a fan favorite in the genre, thanks to previous works including Easy A and Friends With Benefits.
In Anyone But You, Sweeney (Euphoria) and Powell (Top Gun: Maverick) play romantic enemies who must put aside their vendettas and pretend to be a head-over-heels couple to keep the peace at a wedding they both attend. The film also stars Alexandra Shipp, Darren Barnet, Hadley Robinson, Dermot Mulroney, Rachel Griffiths, Michelle Hurd, Bryan Brown, and GaTa.
