New photos of the starlet, looking completely unrecognisable, surfaced from the set of her upcoming movie, reportedly titled 'Black Bear,' on Sunday.

The 'Euphoria' actress was seen with a woman who held an umbrella over her shaggy brown hair (likely a wig) styled with a blue bandanna. Dressed in a baggy sweatshirt and sweatpants, she cleverly disguised her petite figure.

Not much information is available about the film in which Sweeney portrays real-life boxer Christy Martin. However, in May, Sweeney expressed her excitement to Deadline about the transformation of her body to effectively embody the athlete.


She mentioned that she practiced grappling and kickboxing from the age of 12 to 19 and has been eager to return to the ring to train and transform her body. She acknowledged that Christy’s story is both physically and emotionally demanding, carrying significant weight, but emphasised her love for taking on challenges.

She expressed that Christy Martin not only legitimized female boxing but also challenged gender stereotypes while enduring emotional, physical, and financial abuse. Her passion for the fighting world drives her to share Christy’s inspiring journey, highlighting her remarkable rise to fame and the challenges that came with it. She feels compelled to tell a powerful and emotional story about a woman who faced significant adversity and refused to be defeated.
