Sydney Sweeney<\/a> is finally giving Barbarella<\/a><\/em> fans some good news about her upcoming movie. The Euphoria<\/em>, Anyone But You<\/em>, and Madame Web<\/em> star is set to play the titular Barbarella in the flick from Sony Pictures. Barbarella has been in development since 2022, and there hasn\u2019t been much news on the project, aside from Edgar Wright reportedly in talks to direct<\/a>. The new Barbarella<\/em> will have Sydney Sweeney starring and executive producing, but there is still a demand for more and more news and updates. Luckily, we have some from the future Barbarella<\/em> star herself.<\/p>\n Empire<\/em><\/a> spoke to Sydney Sweeney about her career, and the topic of Barbarella<\/em> naturally came up. When asked what the latest news on Barbarella<\/em> is, Sweeney had this to say:<\/p>\n \u201cI was just in London and had a meeting to discuss the story and the script. I can\u2019t say too much, but it\u2019s really going to come together in a very, very fun and big way. It\u2019s a long process. I don\u2019t think people realise how long some things can take, but it\u2019s gonna be worth the wait.\u201d<\/p>\n This may not be much to some fans, but Sweeney points out that making movies is a time-consuming process, and it doesn\u2019t happen overnight. Some measure of patience has to be remembered. Sweeney also confirmed that Barbarella<\/em> is on her bucket list.<\/p>\n \u201cYes, it is. (Laughs<\/em>) That\u2019s what I\u2019m saying! My thirties, I\u2019ve really got to step it up!\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Jane Fonda previously played Barbarella in the 1968 cult-classic film. She said that while she hasn\u2019t spoken to Sydney Sweeney about the project<\/a>, she has ideas of how it could work.<\/p>\n \u201cNobody\u2019s asked me about it!\u00a0I wish I could do a remake of\u00a0Barbarella<\/em><\/a>, but I wouldn\u2019t play her again,\u201d Fonda told Vogue<\/em>. \u201cI have a lot of ideas about what that could look like.\u201d<\/p>\n When pressed if she\u2019d like to share any of those ideas, Fonda replied, \u201cIf Sydney asks, I\u2019ll let her know. I don\u2019t know her and I\u2019ve never met her, but I think she\u2019s great. I\u2019m sure she\u2019ll be a fantastic Barbarella.\u201d<\/p>\nEntertainment
