The Big Picture The ubiquitous Sydney Sweeney has yet another movie lined up - and this one's a knockout. The Immaculate star will practise the sweet science of boxing in a new biopic of groundbreaking fighter Christy Martin. Deadline reports that the film is set to shoot later this year, and will be shopped to potential buyers at this month's Cannes Film Festival.
The film is set to be directed by Animal Kingdom's David Michôd, and will tell the tumultuous tale of Martin, who racked up a record of 49 wins and 7 losses over the course of her 23-year career, and was nearly stabbed to death by her husband in 2010. Martin's story was featured in Deal with the Devil, a first-season entry in Netflix's Untold series of sports documentaries.
What Is Sydney Sweeney Working On Now? Close Since her breakout role on HBO's Euphoria in 2019, Sweeney has been one of the busiest actors in the business. Last year, she starred in the docudrama Reality, and the sleeper hit rom-com Anyone But You.
The film's script is by Michôd and Mirrah Foulkes . Kerry Kohansky-Roberts for Anonymous Content, Michôd for Yoki, Justin Lothrop and Brent Stiefel for Votiv, Sweeney for Fifty-Fifty Films, and Teddy Schwarzman for Black Bear will produce the film. Martin herself is collaborating in the film's production, as well.
Sydney Sweeney's untitled Christy Martin biopic is set to shoot this fall; no release date has yet been set. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
