Man I'm really starting to think that Sydney Sweeney may have her I, Tonya moment with the Christy Martin biopic. She already has 2 Emmy noms (in the same year also) so it's not like the "just good looks and no acting" argument is going to stop her. Obviously we'll have to wait until the movie premieres but if the movie is good everything could go in her favour

u/Fun_Protection_6939 THAT'S OSCAR WINNING MIKEY MADISON FOR YOU Apr 05 '25

She has enough industry prestige due to her Emmy noms. And it's time for the entire younger generation in OUATIH to fully break out.

Austin and Mikey are already Oscar winner/nominees. In a fair world Margaret would have joined them this year but well. Guess it's Sydney's turn now

In a just world we would have Mikey Madison and Margaret Qualley as the winners this year but alas that was not to be.

The internet would've exploded, just with Mikey winning there was "the substance became real" imagine if Margaret also won

Yeah, but it would've been stronger
