00:00She's been a lovestruck high schooler and a sharp-tongued hotel guest, but Sidney Sweeney's
00:04next role is literally out of this world. Deadline announced the 25-year-old actress
00:09will play Barbarella in an upcoming reboot of the famed comic book by Jean-Claude Forrest.
00:14Barbarella first hit the big screens in 1968, starring Jane Fonda. The original adaptation
00:20follows an outer space special agent tasked with finding a missing scientist. With its fighting,
00:25space seduction, and distinctly bizarre design, the film quickly became a cult classic. The
00:30reboot is being produced by Sony Pictures and still in early stages of development.
00:34There's currently no writer or director attached to the sci-fi flick. Whether she's running around
00:39with Nate or fighting aliens in space, all we can say is that we've never, ever been happier.
