Fans of Anyone But You have been buzzing with excitement about the possibility of a sequel ever since the first film became a breakout hit. The chemistry between Bea (Sydney Sweeney) and Ben (Glen Powell), the wedding antics in Australia, and the romantic misunderstandings all combined to make it a memorable romantic comedy. With box office success over $200 million globally, and public statements by the leads hinting at a follow‑up, the groundwork is there for Anyone But You 2.

Were Anyone But You 2 to happen, it would likely pick up with Bea and Ben navigating the awkward but hopeful period after admitting their feelings and officially getting together. Their relationship, which blossomed out of pretending to be a couple at a wedding, would face more real‑life obstacles: work pressures, family expectations, and maybe the lingering effects of what originally tore them apart—miscommunication and jealousy. The sequel could explore how love continues after the romantic peak, emphasizing growth and trust rather than just attraction. This would give the sequel more emotional depth, something some viewers felt the first film lacked.

Another strong possibility is that the sequel would expand the supporting cast’s arcs: Bea’s sister Halle and Claudia, Pete and his sister, Ben’s ex Margaret, and perhaps new characters who challenge or complicate the main couple’s dynamic. A subplot could involve Bea returning to law school or reconciling with her career goals, especially given that in the original she secretly dropped out. Similarly, Ben might confront personal issues, such as reconciling his past or facing expectations tied to his job. These “outside” pressures often enrich romantic comedies by testing the strength of the relationship.

Conflict in the sequel might stem from external misunderstanding or a new romantic rival or misunderstanding that draws Bea and Ben apart temporarily, forcing them to confront what made them misjudge each other in the first film. One can imagine a scenario where Bea’s family expects her to settle down more traditionally, or Ben is offered a major job that wants him to move, creating tension. The wedding setting of the first film won’t be there to mask things, so the sequel might lean into more grounded humor and stakes.

Visually and tonally, Anyone But You 2 would likely maintain the lighthearted, sunny, romantic comedy style: lively banter, beautiful locales, wedding scenes, romantic gestures, but also more moments of vulnerability. The audience wants to believe not just in love, but in honest communication, so scenes where Bea and Ben open up—about fears, missteps, what they want for the future—would feel essential.

In sum, while nothing is confirmed yet, the possibility of Anyone But You 2 is very real. The film’s cast have expressed interest, and the success of the original makes a sequel commercially sensible. If it happens, audiences will hope to see Bea and Ben’s relationship deepen, tested by career, family, and self‑doubt, not just the tropes of fake dating or misunderstandings. Above all, the sequel would need to deliver that same spark that made the first movie beloved, while showing that love can survive beyond its most glamorous moments.
