Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell have started quite a conversation around their movie, Anyone But You, and oddly enough, it has nothing to do with the film itself. Fans have been obsessing over the chemistry the two share long before the movie was even filmed. This became such a big topic of discussion that the internet has become convinced that the two are involved with each other, even though both of them were in a relationship when the rumors started. Powell ended up splitting with model Gigi Paris after the speculation started, which certainly did not help their case.
With how talked about these two have become, it has many curious about the ages they were when they were filming this movie and what is the age gap between them. On that note, here is the age gap between Sweeney and Powell.
How Old Are Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell?
Sydney Sweeney is a highly accomplished actress. She started to gain recognition after her appearance in Everything Sucks! and Handmaid’s Tale, playing relatively younger characters. These projects helped her establish herself as someone to look out for in the film industry. The projects that ended up making her such a significant person in popular culture, however, have to be Euphoria and White Lotus, two projects where she showcased just how good she is at her craft. Knowing this, it is surprising to find out that she is only 26 years old, having been born on 12 September 1997.
On the other hand, Glen Powell is almost as well known as Sweeney, having starred in a number of significant projects himself. He has been a part of The Dark Knight Rises, Set It Up, Devotion, and most famously, Top Gun: Maverick, where he starred alongside Tom Cruise. The actor was born on 21 October 1988, being 35 years old.
What Is The Age Gap Between Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell?
Knowing their ages, one does not need to be a mathematical genius to figure out that the two have an eight-year age gap between them. Eight years and ten months to be precise. While this number may seem jarring and odd considering the two are starring in a rom-com film, it is nothing we haven’t seen before. Hollywood has a reputation for having really big age gaps between two love interests, where the male love interest is usually much older than the female love interest.
While this isn’t always acknowledged inside the project, it is something that is seen between actors. Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen have an eleven-year age difference, and despite this, the two starred as love interests in the 2005 film, Pride and Prejudice. When Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper made Silver Linings Playbook, the two were twenty-two and thirty-seven respectively.
