Surprises and unpredictable instances often become a memorable part of behind-the-sets goodies. Similarly, with Sydney Sweeney, the actress got bit by a huntsman spider while she was asked to jiggle her hand a little.

It seems like the spider was irritated enough to bite the actress, contributing to her more realistic and genuine reaction while shooting. Thanks to Sydney Sweeney’s co-star Glen Powell in the upcoming rom-com Anyone But You, who noticed the authenticity in the Euphoria star’s acting and realized the scene must be paused.

Sydney Sweeney Was Bitten By a Huntsman Spider While Shooting For Anyone But You

Sydney Sweeney is beyond question one of the most influential and impeccable actresses of her generation who rose to stardom at an early age. Her latest movie, Anyone But You has just opened up against the DC superhero Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom and Sweeney is co-starring alongside Glen Powell. However, while filming the rom-com, the Reality star was supposed to shake her hand a little to agitate the spider on her hand for realistic action while filming.

However, Sweeney’s over-dramatic and intense screaming captured Powell’s attention, who realized that the huntsman spider was biting his co-star. During an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the Top Gun star shared “So, she’s having to do this insert shot where she’s shaking this spider and agitating it.” and added:

“And I was like, ‘Why are we agitating this real Huntsman spider?’ So that’s how it happened — they coached her into agitating this spider. I’m like, ‘Of course that’s going to happen.”

This turned out to be a lighthearted incident for the actors and crew members who thought Sweeney was trying to make her acting more dynamic and engaging. The actress also shared on the Jimmy Fallon Show that “Glen was the only one who was like, ‘Whoa, whoa, whoa. I think this is a little real’ and we had to cut.” This humorous situation also reminds us of the Americana star’s upcoming Madame Web in which Sweeney is set to play Spider-woman.
