Sydney Sweeney Hypes ‘Americana’ Role On Instagram As Ad Backlash Lingers<\/h2>\n
Just days before “Americana” hit theaters, Sweeney tried to drum up excitement on Instagram, sharing a heartfelt post with her followers.<\/p>\n
\u201cA few years ago, I filmed this little movie with some friends, and now you get to meet Penny Jo,\u201d she wrote, referring to her character in the film.<\/p>\n
But instead of rallying support, the comments section quickly filled with backlash.<\/p>\n
Many users bypassed the movie entirely to bring up the lingering controversy over her American Eagle campaign and her political ties. \u201cPerfect, won\u2019t be watching it,\u201d one person wrote.<\/p>\n
Another added, \u201cSo you voted for Trump? The man in the Epstein files?\u201d<\/p>\n
Others were even more blunt, posting remarks like, \u201cI lost you at registered Republican\u201d and \u201cBruh nobody watching this.\u201d<\/p>\n
