Sydney Sweeney becomes Hollywood’s most-in-demand actress
According to reports by The Hollywood Reporter, Euphoria actress Sydney Sweeney, who starred in Madame Web as Julia Cornwall alongside Dakota Johnson, is now regarded as one of the most-in-demand actresses in the industry. Even though Madame Web tanked awfully at the box office, the actress made it all right, making $750,000 with the movie.
The reports have suggested that Sweeney only agreed to star in Madame Web to get her romantic-comedy movie opposite Glen Powell, Anyone but You greenlit. The source of Sony Pictures shared with the publication,
Not only did Sweeney get Anyone but You greenlit, but they also managed to make $2 million from the movie. She was praised for her performance in the movie as well. The much-talked-about romantic comedy made with a budget of $25 million went on to gross over $220 million at the box office, which assured Sony Pictures about the actress’ success and influence. She also earned $250,000 as the movie’s executive producer.
The actress, who appeared as a whistleblower Reality Winner in the biopic Reality and was highly lauded for her work, received $65,000 for the movie. For Immaculate, in which Sydney Sweeney not only starred but also served as an executive producer, she received an additional pay of $250,000 on top of her salary of $650,000.

The movie is set to be directed by David Michod and is based on a former professional boxer who competed from 1989-1012 and is known for being the world champion in the super welterweight class in 2009. Christy Martin is also a survivor of an attempted murder by her husband, James Martin.
James Martin stabbed the boxer multiple times and shot her, but she managed to survive, and in 2012 James Martin was sentenced to 25 years in prison. The boxer who has retired was elected to the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2020, and it was the first time the organization’s ballot included women.
The White Lotus actress, who is now one of the most talented actresses in the industry, shared,
Ben Foster is set to play James Martin in the movie, which is being produced and financed by Black Bear following their collaboration with the actress on Immaculate.
Immaculate can be streamed on Hulu, where Anyone but You is available to stream on Netflix, Prime Video, and Apple TV.
