Sydney Sweeney's slightly disappointing update on Anyone But You 2 shocks me, because it shows that Hollywood is leaving money on the table. The original 2023 romantic comedy, which was directed by Easy A's Will Gluck, was a loose adaptation of the Shakespeare play Much Ado About Nothing. It followed Bea (Sweeney) and Ben (Glen Powell), who have resented one another after their burgeoning relationship fizzled out amid a misunderstanding but who find themselves pretending to be in a relationship while at a wedding in Australia. They both have different goals, but they end up falling for one another instead.
