i can relate to her feeling like a caged animal with her acting career, where she feels trapped but then finds freedom on set 
what's even more amazing is that sydney got so close to the actress playing christy martin and its actually changed her life for the better 
she's saying it helped her find self empowerment and courage... cant wait to see the movie on nov 7th 
. It's interesting how Sweeney sees herself as a caged animal when it comes to acting, I feel like we've all been there at some point 
. Can't wait for the film to come out and see Sweeney bring this powerful story to life 
, this is all too suspicious. First, there's Sydney Sweeney, a total Hollywood darling, and then she gets cast as Christy Martin, a real-life boxer who went through hell? It's like they're trying to brainwash us into thinking that Hollywood is the real hero here 
.
! it's amazing how this role is not only helping her bring the story to life but also having a profound impact on her own personal growth 
. i can imagine how empowering it must feel to play someone who went through such a tough time, but came out stronger on the other side 
IT'S SO COOL THAT SHE GOT TO MEET CHRISTY MARTIN IN REAL LIFE AND LEARN FROM HER, SHE MUST'VE PICKED UP SOME AMAZING LESSONS TO SHARE WITH US ALL 
I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO WATCHING THE FILM AND SEEING HOW IT COMES ALIVE ON SCREEN
