Sydney Sweeney's Gundam Movie is a 'Big Action-Romance Space' Epic, Star Says

Noah Centineo teases star-crossed lovers in space with Sydney Sweeney The live-action Gundam film has been in the works in some form or another since 2018. A director and cast have been announced, including high-profile names like Sydney Sweeney joining the project. Still, hard details on exactly what the adaptation of the legendary mech anime series will look like have been almost non-existent. Now one of the movie's stars is pulling back the curtain ever so slightly. Talking on the Happy Sad Confused podcast hosted by Josh Horowitz, Gundam star Noah Centineo revealed the movie is a "big action romance space movie." Centineo continued by describing Gundam as, "a non-Shakespearean Romeo and Juliet in space." That is a bit of a confusing statement but what I think Centineo means is that the film is about star-crossed lovers on the opposite sides of a generational conflict. That sounds like it could fit perfectly within established Mobile Suit Gundam lore, as the series often focuses on the war between the Earth Federation and the Principality of Zeon in the Universal Century timeline. Centineo did confirm to Horowitz that the Gundam film will take place in the Universal Century. Thi
