Sydney Sweeney's latest role as professional boxer Christy Martin has left her unrecognizable. In a recent Instagram post, Sweeney posed in costume alongside the real Martin with both of them holding up a fist.
"We have wrapped filming Christy Martin’s story and it has been one of the most emotional, transformative experiences of my life. Christy’s journey is so deeply inspiring, and having her by my side during this process was nothing short of surreal," she wrote in the caption.
She continued, "There were moments on set where I’d glance over at her standing by the monitors, cheering us on, and I’d just become so emotional. Knowing what she’s endured, what she’s pushed through to be there in that moment—it made me want to cry."
Throughout the rest of the caption, Sweeney thanked the cast and crew of the movie, later adding she is excited for audiences to "witness a story that’s as powerful as the woman who lived it."

"Fashion is a really fun way of embracing different sides of yourself," she told People in August about her style. "Some days, I might feel very girly, some days, I might feel edgy. Others, I might feel like I want to be more laid-back. It's a way of being able to express those different sides of how I feel or who I am."

"If I put [clothes] on, and I smile and I feel good [in them], then I know that's what I want to wear," she told People in August about whether people's opinions of her clothes bother her. "I don't really let other people dictate how I should feel or what I should be doing or wearing, because if I'm happy, and it's making me feel good, that's what matters."
