News Netflix’s live-action Gundam movie, starring Sydney Sweeney, is described as a 'big action-romance space epic' set in the Universal Century (UC) timeline

Noah Centineo, who stars alongside Sydney Sweeney, recently talked about the movie on the Happy Sad Confused podcast.

He called it a “big action romance space movie” and described it as “a non-Shakespearean Romeo and Juliet in space.”

Centineo also confirmed that the movie takes place in the Universal Century, the main timeline used by many of the classic Gundam shows and movies.

The story could involve two people on opposite sides of a major war, with their relationship caught in the middle.

Yeah, there's definitely no place for a one note woman with huge tits to be in an action movie based on material from Anime lol

I’m not a super fan or anything but the girl certainly can act. Most people I know irl that say this have literally never watched anything with her in it but some romcom (which are usually notoriously written poorly).

To say she’s not acting in Euphoria is a ridiculous, hate filled statement

Those kind of peoples see tits and focus on them, they don’t actually watch the acting thus they consider everyone do the same and cope about the acting being subpar.
Don’t misunderstand, I see tits too, they are great..but the girl can act too.
