Sydney Sweeney’s Netflix ‘Gundam’ Movie Is a Sign of Things to Come

Netflix has begun production on a live-action Gundam film led by Sydney Sweeney.

Noah Centineo, Michael Mando, Jason Isaacs, Shioli Kutsuna, and others have joined the cast.

The role fits Sweeney’s move from TV and rom-coms into bigger action and franchise projects.

It also shows how star power can help get a costly, difficult IP adaptation off the ground.
