In a world where CGI reigns supreme and actors often dodge the perils of physically demanding scenes, Glen Powell is here to keep it real—and a little bit wild. Yup, you heard that right! The dashing leading man recently pulled back the curtain on his experience filming the rom-com hit *Anyone But You*, giving us a cheeky peek into what it’s like to tackle dangerous stunts with the formidable Sydney Sweeney—specifically, her, ahem, assets. Picture this: instead of a green screen, Glen opted for the full monty, taking some serious knocks while ensuring those raw, genuine reactions were captured in real-time.
“I was really being pummeled by those things!” he declared, and let’s just take a moment to process that. Who knew a Hollywood set could resemble a wrestling ring? It’s a mix of comedy and chaos, folks, where a wrong move could send you straight to the ER—with a black eye to boot! Learning the ropes from none other than Tom Cruise, Powell’s journey is as entertaining as the films he stars in. So, ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes when romance and real-life stunts collide? Buckle up—it’s about to get bumpy!
AUSTIN, TX—Giving his fans a glimpse behind the scenes of his work as a top Hollywood leading man, Glen Powell opened up to reporters Friday about doing his own dangerous stunts while filming with Sydney Sweeney’s breasts on the set of last year’s hit rom-com Anyone But You. “None of that was CGI—I was really being pummeled by those things,” said the 35-year-old star, who explained that the movie’s producers opted to shoot his scenes live with Sweeney’s actual breasts rather than having him perform alone in front of a green screen and adding the cleavage in post-production. “I came home from the set pretty beaten up every day, but it was worth it to get those raw reactions to the breasts in real time. It’s stressful, though, because a single mistake in the blocking of a scene can put you in the hospital. Thankfully, we had a lot of stunt professionals working with us to make sure nothing too serious happened—although I did get a black eye from the left one.” Powell added that his mentor Tom Cruise had given him a lot of helpful advice from his experience filming with Salma Hayek.
