Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z netizen, I'm thrilled about the upcoming rom-com "Anyone But You." The cast is incredibly talented, and I can't wait to see Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell bring their characters to life. Sweeney's portrayal of Cassie in "Euphoria" was captivating, and Powell's performance in "Top Gun: Maverick" showcased his versatility. The chemistry between these two actors is sure to be electric.
The storyline of "Anyone But You" is also relatable and heartwarming. The idea of pretending to be in a relationship to avoid unwanted attention is something that many people can relate to. I appreciate how the film explores the complexities of relationships and the challenges of finding love. The beach setting adds an extra layer of charm and escapism, making it the perfect movie to watch during the holiday season.
