Sydney Sweeney stars in "Christy" trailer.

The trailer for the highly-anticipated movie dropped Thursday, and fans of Sweeney's work might be in for a huge change of pace when they see the star actress as boxer Christy Martin.

She looks nothing like fans have seen over the years. There's a different level of rawness and intensity……and a clear physical transformation into an elite fighter.

Sydney Sweeney when in her vibe mode:

Sydney Sweeney as Christy Martin:

Not exactly the same! It looks like she packed on some serious muscle to play Martin, and it comes across in obvious ways on screen.

We're definitely not in "Anyone but You" territory anymore. It appears Sweeney is award hunting with "Christy," and she just might get it if the movie lives up to the hype.

At the very least, she's putting an unreal amount of range on display.

You can catch "Christy" in theaters starting November 7th. Hit me with your thoughts on the preview at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
