Sydney Sweeney has shared a video of the moment she was bitten by a “trained” spider while filming Anyone But You, her romantic comedy with Glen Powell.
Sweeney played the clip on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” and revealed that she thought she was going to die when the spider sank its teeth into her wrist.
“He bites me, he bites me. No, he's really biting me,” she screams in the clip. Powell comes to her aid and asks, “It got you?” It actually got you?”
Sweeney was given a clean bill of health after the incident and can now laugh about what she described as her “soul scream” when the arachnid bit.
“Who else bleeds for their romantic comedies?” Fallon quipped, describing her alarm as a “primal scream.”
Fallon showed an official report from the Columbia Pictures film's on-set medic, who jokingly wrote: “First aid – Sydney Sweeney (cast) bitten by a spider, now Spiderwoman.”
Sweeney said the “Anyeman But You” crew didn't know she would be playing Spider-Woman in her next project, Sony's Spider-Man spinoff Madame Web.
