Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney have made secret appearances in a polarizing 2026 romantic comedy. The highly divisive film has been directed by Will Gluck.
One Night Only was released in theaters last week and has received mixed reactions from critics so far. It featured Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner in lead roles as Allie and Owen.
While the cast also includes other notable names, it’s been revealed that Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney made secret cameos in the movie but only through photos. While Sweeney’s photo appeared on a dating app, Powell appeared briefly as an attractive neighbor Maya Hawke’s character Malika slept with.
Why Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney’s secret One Night Only cameos make sense
While fans might be wondering about Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney’s surprising cameos in One Night Only, they actually make a lot of sense.
Both actors previously worked together on a Will Gluck-directed movie, titled Anyone But You. The 2023 romantic comedy was helmed by Gluck and featured Powell and Sweeney as Ben and Bea.
One Night Only’s cast also includes Julia Fox, King Princess, Ziwe Fumudoh, Ben Marshall, Molly Ringwald, and Levar Burton. Made on a $25 million budget, the movie has grossed over $5 million in North America so far. While critics have responded with mixed reviews, fans have embraced the film. Currently, it holds a solid 73% Popcornmeter score on Rotten Tomatoes compared to its Tomatometer score of just 45%.
Similar to One Night Only, Gluck’s Anyone But You also received mixed reactions from critics upon release. But it still managed to win over the audience members and became a box office hit. Made on a $25 million budget, it went on to earn nearly $220 million worldwide.
Universal Pictures’ One Night Only is now playing in theaters.
