Sydney Sweeney has a cheeky nickname for her rom-com co-star Glen Powell.
While at CinemaCon 2023 in Las Vegas on Monday, the “Euphoria” star referred to the “Top Gun: Maverick” actor as “Top Gun” in a flirty exchange.
“We love seeing ourselves on the big screen,” Powell quipped, according to People, before the first trailer for their upcoming film, “Anyone But You,” played.
“Oh, please, Top Gun,” Sweeney said in response, prompting Powell to tell the convention attendees, “I love when she calls me that.”
Sweeney, 25, proceeded to make a joke about how she thought Powell, 34, was actually Miles Teller – who starred opposite Tom Cruise in last year’s “Top Gun” sequel – “until the fourth day of shooting [‘Anyone But You’].”
“You knew I’m not Miles Teller,” Powell said, to which Sweeney playfully replied, “No, I did. I actually thought you were Tom Cruise, though.”
The pair’s off-screen chemistry was reportedly palpable as they continued to banter throughout the appearance.
“Anyway, as you could probably guess, this movie’s about two people that hate each other. Sydney plays a character [who is] a real nightmare,” Powell told the audience, as Sweeney interjected to describe her co-star’s character as an “a–hole.”
“And what better place to put a nightmare and an a–hole than on the other side of the world in the most romantic setting imaginable?” the “Devotion” actor added of the flick, which was shot in Australia.
The two looked quite cozy while posing for pictures together at the event, as they could not keep their eyes or hands off each other.
Though neither Sweeney nor Powell is single, their rapport has certainly raised a few eyebrows.
Sources told TMZ on Tuesday that the “White Lotus” actress is still engaged to Jonathan Davino. However, her reps did not immediately respond to Pvnew’s inquiry about the status of their relationship or why she hasn’t been wearing her ring.
Meanwhile, Powell’s longtime girlfriend, Gigi Paris, recently unfollowed Sweeney, sparking speculation that she and the hunky movie star have split. His reps haven’t gotten back to us, either.
