Sydney Sweeney Discusses 30-Pound Weight Gain for Christy Martin Biopic Transformation

Sydney Sweeney recently shared details of her physical transformation to portray boxer Christy Martin in an upcoming biopic. The Euphoria actress underwent intense training for three and a half months, resulting in a weight gain of over 30 pounds. Sweeney described her body as "completely different" due to the rigorous workout regimen, causing her to struggle fitting into her clothes. “I’m usually a size 23 in jeans, and I was wearing a size 27,” Sweeney said. “My boobs got bigger. And my butt got huge. It was crazy! I was like, ‘Oh my God.’” Despite the changes, she embraced her increased strength and altered appearance. Christy Martin, a renowned female boxer, achieved significant success in her career before surviving a murder attempt in 2010. Sweeney said she's "honored to step into her shoes" and expressed gratitude for the opportunity to bring Martin's inspiring story to life. (Hollywoodreporter)
