The Anyone But You cast had a surprise guest watching them work according to the lead co-stars Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell.
The actors got a surprise from Former President Barack Obama. Sweeney and Powell recounted the moment with Entertainment Tonight.
“I'm flying in a helicopter above Sydney Opera House and I'm dressed in a tuxedo,” Powell says of the encounter. “I get to jump out of a helicopter and run up to the girl and confess my love for her and it was just one of those moments. During that scene, Barack Obama is also watching us shoot that entire scene. So it was just loaded.”
“Barack Obama happened to be at Sydney Opera House the exact same time we were filming that and they're just standing up there,” Sweeney adds.
“So to do that scene at the Sydney Opera House, it was like presidential approval,” Powell says. “It felt like paparazzi, no, it's presidential detail that was hovering above the Sydney Opera House while we're shooting that scene.”
