Sydney Sweeney in Final Talks for Gundam Movie Role

Sydney Sweeney, renowned for her roles in HBO's *Euphoria*, *The White Lotus*, *Reality*, *Anyone but You*, and the superhero film *Madame Web*, is reportedly in the final stages of negotiations to star in the upcoming live-action adaptation of the iconic anime and toy franchise, *Mobile Suit Gundam*. In February, it was announced that production for this eagerly awaited film had commenced, with Bandai Namco and Legendary Entertainment signing a deal to co-finance the project.
The film, yet to receive an official title, will be penned and directed by Kim Mickle, known for her work on *Sweet Tooth*. While specifics such as the release date and plot details remain under wraps, a teaser poster has been released to stir excitement among fans.
According to Variety, Sweeney's involvement in the *Gundam* movie is confirmed, though the specifics of her character and the overarching storyline are still unknown. This casting news follows Sweeney's recent attachment to star in and produce a film based on a horror story from a Reddit thread.
Legendary and Bandai Namco have expressed their intent to gradually release more information as it becomes available. They emphasized the significance of *Mobile Suit Gundam*, which debuted in 1979 and revolutionized the 'real robot anime' genre by presenting a more nuanced portrayal of conflict, incorporating detailed scientific elements, and weaving complex human narratives around the concept of 'mobile suits' as weapons. This approach sparked a significant cultural phenomenon.
