Whatever the reason, the combination of red carpet glamour and retail drama has made every opening weekend feel like a gamble on fate itself.

Before the tumble, Sydney Sweeney’s magic was not just hype. Anyone But You grossed over $220 million worldwide on a $25 million budget, cementing her as a lead with bona fide drawing power. Her horror outing Immaculate also scored around $35 million, proving she could juggle genres without toppling. Before recent hiccups, Sweeney seemed to have a knack for picking projects that hit the sweet spot between cult obsession and mainstream gold, twice, no less, with actual box office consequences.
