Sydney Sweeney showed off her transformation, flexing her muscles for an upcoming biopic role.
The 27-year-old Euphoria star surprised fans with toned biceps and deltoids in photos she shared online. Along with her new muscular look, Sweeney sported dark hair, which many fans assumed to be wig.
“well the cats out of the bag thanks to some paps in bushes so here’s a little bts from my film im working on right now,” Sweeney wrote. ” over the past few months, i’ve been immersed in training to bring to life the story of an incredible woman—a true champion who fought battles both inside and outside the ring. her journey is a testament to resilience, strength, and hope, and I’m honored to step into her shoes to share her powerful story with you all. more to come soon 🙂 CHRISTY MARTIN”
A fan commented, “Hope this is finally the non-sexualized iconic role that showcases her acting talent that she’s been needing.”
Another fan commented, “I’m so proud of you my love. I can’t wait to watch this movie, I feel like it’s going to be different from anything you’ve ever done! I love you ❤️”
Role is based on boxer Christy Martin, who had a record of 49 wins, seven losses, and three draws between 1989 and 2012.
Her personal life was even more intense than her career. In 1991, she married her trainer, Jim Martin, who tried to kill her nine years later.
