Since its announcement in January 2023, Anyone But You has become one of the most highly anticipated rom-coms of this year. Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell, two of the show’s main actors, have generated a lot of buzz. It’s easy for viewers to imagine the dynamic between these two leads based on the first images taken on set.
Anyone But You, directed and co-written by Easy A’s Will Gluck, is an R-rated romantic comedy film that has been compared to Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing. Two former rivals are thrown back together during a destination wedding and must pretend to be a pair “for better or worse.”
The film Anyone But You was revealed at the beginning of the year, and a preview for it was shown at CinemaCon 2023, when it was also teased by directors Powell and Sweeney. The cast members have been sharing production photos from the set of Anyone But You on their social media pages, so it seems safe to assume that this film will usher in a new era of steamy romantic comedies.
The movie is finally getting its long-awaited debut in theaters, and it won’t be until December. Find out when the film will be released, who will be in it, and more by reading our comprehensive guide below about Anyone But You.

What Is ‘Anyone But You’ About?
Anyone But You is a romantic comedy that follows the tried-and-true plot device of an antagonist becoming a friend or lover. In this screwball comedy, the two antagonists engage in a variety of schemes to get even with one another.
Here is the official plot summary for the film:
“In the edgy comedy Anyone But You, Bea (Sydney Sweeney) and Ben (Glen Powell) look like the perfect couple, but after an amazing first date something happens that turns their fiery hot attraction ice cold – until they find themselves unexpectedly thrust together at a destination wedding in Australia. So they do what any two mature adults would do: pretend to be a couple.”
Who Stars in ‘Anyone But You’?
Euphoria breakout sensation Sydney Sweeney and Top Gun: Maverick star Glen Powell headline the cast of Anyone But You as Bea and Ben, the erstwhile rivals turned phony lovers.
Emmy Award-nominated twice Sweeney is noted for dramatic characterizations, and has made headlines with her performances in programs like Euphoria, The White Lotus (Season 1), The Handmaid’s Tale, and films like The Voyeurs and Clementine.
Sweeney, fresh off her role in the critically praised biography Reality, appears to have a full film schedule ahead of her, with films like Madame Web, Americana, Immaculate, and Echo Valley on the horizon. She will also star in and serve as executive producer for a remake of Jane Fonda’s groundbreaking 1968 classic Barbarella.
Her leading man Powell may have found his specialty in action films like Top Gun: Maverick and Devotion, but he is no stranger to the romantic comedy. He has also guest-starred in Scream Queens and the dark comedy film Set It Up, both available on Netflix.
Powell’s next film is the criminal comedy Hit Man, directed by Richard Linklater and which premiered at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival to rave reviews. Anyone But You stars a large ensemble of actors, including Dermot Mulroney, a rom-com veteran, and the rising stars Alison Sweeney and Glenn Powell.
Mulroney is well-known for his roles in films like My Best Friend’s Wedding and The Wedding Date as well as television series like Pure Genius, Homecoming, Secret Invasion, and Hanna.
A number of other notable actors, including Alexandra Shipp (Tick, Tick..Boom! ), GaTa (Dave), Hadley Robinson (Winning Time), Michelle Hurd (Star Trek: Picard), Darren Barnet (Never Have I Ever), Rachel Griffiths (Six Feet Under), Bryan Brown (Palm Beach), and Joe Davidson (Neighbors), appear alongside him.
