Sydney Sweeney's Film Nod to 'Reality' Winner's Truth Gets Rave, Rave Reviews in Berlin

February 27, 2023/ Anne Enke

‘Euphoria’ star Sydney Sweeney is receiving raves for her role in the film ‘Reality’. Following the film’s premiere at the Berlin Film Festival on February 18, 2023 — and staggeringly positive reviews — HBO has moved to pickup distribution rights.

In 2018 Reality Winner, a former intelligence contractor for NSA, left her National Security Agency contractor’s office at the Fort Gordon army base in Georgia. In hand was a single intelligence report about Russian attempts to meddle in the 2016 presidential election that saw Donald J. Trump beat Hillary Clinton for the White House.

Tina Satter directed the film, based on the story of Reality Winner’s day that the FBI showed up at her door. This press conference video says much about the structure of the FBI investigation and ‘friendly’ confrontation with Winner at her home. The FBI interview is also discussed in the ‘60 Minutes’ video.

Actors Marchant Davis, Josh Hamilton, and Benny Elledge have roles in the film.

The New York Times notes that actor Laverne Cox is well known on Hollywood’s red carpets. This season Cox has switched it up as the host of preshow specials at the Grammys and the Oscars for E. The actor takes her hosting gigs very seriously, with an unusual amount of preparation for a red carpet host.

“I’ll try to look for other interviews they’ve done if it’s applicable so I can maybe ask them something that they haven’t been asked,” Ms. Cox said about her red carpet interviews. “And you have to be in the moment because there’s so many things happening.”

Finally, a Movie Blockbuster

‘No Way Home’ clocked the third-highest preview result on the Hollywood history books last week at $50 million , behind “Avengers: Endgame” ($60 million) and “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” ($57 million).

In a world that needs a winner right now, ‘No Way Home’ lit up the skies over the weekend, remaining in third place in movie releases box office history. ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ Is Even More Amazing With $601M Global Debut For 3rd Biggest WW Bow Ever; $341M Snared Overseas – International Box Office.

Stars Zendaya and Tom Holland are flying high with these box office results. ‘Spider-Man’ producers Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal talked to the New York Times on the Future of ‘Spider-Man’ and the M.C.U.[Marvel Comics Universe].

“No Way Home,” directed by Jon Watts, marks the end of a trilogy starring Tom Holland as Peter Parker and Zendaya as MJ, his plucky romantic counterpart. But the $200 million sequel also represents the culmination of nearly 20 years of Spider-Man movies — eight in total — because it draws in characters unseen since “Spider-Man 3” in 2007 and “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” in 2014.
