Hollywood actor Sydney Sweeney has been offered to do a Bollywood film with a paycheck of Rs 530 crore, as per a report in Sun. It is being said that the actor will play the role of an American star falling in love with an Indian actor in the film, which is set to be one of the most expensive projects in Bollywood.

The report stated that, “The deal is made up of a 35 million pound (over ₹415 crore) fee alongside 10 million pound (over ₹115 crore) in sponsorship agreements, with producers hoping Sydney's star power would help the film reach a wider audience in the international market.”

The film is expected to go on floors in early 2026 with shoot planned in multiple locations including New York, Paris, London and Dubai. A source told the publication that Sydney was initially surprised with the offer. “But the project is intriguing, and it could elevate her global profile even further. The Indian film industry is powerful and growing, and this movie is designed to bring its productions to the international market,” said the source.

The insider added, “Nothing has been decided yet, but it’s a huge opportunity and Sydney is weighing her options carefully. Money isn’t everything, and she has many projects lined up, but this could push her to new limits as an actress.”

An official confirmation on this is awaited.

Sydney is known for starring in the web-series, Euphoria and The White Lotus. She will be seen next in the sports biographical-drama, Christy, which had its world premiere at Toronto International Film Festival 2025. She will also set to star in the upcoming psychological thriller, The Housemaid, based on a book of the same name written by Freida McFadden.
