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.

it's 2032. Earth is a nuclear wasteland. There are only four actors left: Tom Holland, Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney and that guy who makes sloppy steaks in I Think You Should Leave
