Sidney Sweeney appears to be laughing at the idea that she will star in a film with Johnny Deep – but her team was more firm in taking that down… because it’s not true.
Insider of the world of cinema Jeff Sneider reported on Friday that Sydney has been cast in a new film by the director Marc Webb – who made “500 Days of Summer”, the Andrew Garfield ‘Spider-Man’ movies, etc. -and her biggest report information was that she starred with JD.
The movie Sneider said the two would be in was called “Day Drinker”… and he said it was being written by Alan Trezza. It seems he had all the details – however, Sydney’s group directly denied it… as did the actress herself.
Sydney tweeted on Saturday, “Woke up to ✨rumors✨ anyway, go see @ImmaculateMovie in theaters this weekend!” Not long after, her rep told DiscussingFilm that the report was false.

It’s unclear what the fuss is here, because Sneider – a well-respected journalist in the game – is doubling down on his reporting… suggesting that Sweeney’s team is lying in their denial here, and even going so far as to say that he anticipated its own announcement.
After ignoring calls on Friday, your reps are surely working overtime on a holiday weekend. They said I “created a mess.” Well guess what? Totally false stories don’t create confusion… REAL stories do. Sorry I ruined the big Cannes announcement! Maybe call back next time? https://t.co/5yaQO4kC0s

He calls Sydney’s tweet a “non-denial”… and also tweeted: “After ignoring calls on Friday, her reps are certainly working overtime on a holiday weekend. They said I “ I created a mess.” Well, guess what? Completely fake stories don’t create a mess… REAL stories do. Sorry, I ruined the big Cannes announcement! Maybe call back next time?

Of course, if there’s any truth to what Sneider is reporting – and again, the Sydney team is saying there isn’t – then it would certainly be interesting… because she would be the first A-list, young mainstream star to do something with Johnny since all her Amber Heard saga.
Since he walked away with a post-trial victory here in the US, his film career has yet to take off or get back to what it once was… and a film featuring Sydney would certainly be his big, true return to American audiences.
He’s acted in a French film since then – which will be released here in May – but at this point… he’s not on the scene again like everyone thought he would be in Hollywood.
So yeah… a Sydney Sweeney movie would be great for him – but unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be happening – or so it seems.
Back to the drawing board.
