Unfortunately, Christy couldn't make an impact at the box office and received mixed reviews from the critics.

Just like her fans, Sweeney isn't significantly affected by the film's box-office failure.

Sydney Sweeney shared an Instagram post thanking the people who went to theatres to see Christy. The actress added that if her movie inspires even a single woman out there, it's a success for her, as not all movies are for numbers. Sweeney also thanked Christy Martin and admitted that working on the latter's biopic has been the most impactful project of her life so far. On the one hand, Sweeney has remained positive despite her film's failure; on the other hand, a fresh wave of viewers has decided to boycott her upcoming film, The Housemaid.

According to a report in the Irish Star, a certain segment of people has decided to boycott The Housemaid, starring Amanda Seyfried and Brandon Sklenar, simply because they don't want to see Sydney Sweeney in movies.

Amidst all this chaos, Australian actor, Ruby Rose has added to her problems after revealing she was supposed to play Christy Martin in the biopic. She dropped a tweet that reads:

"The original Christy Martin script was incredible. Life changing. I was attached to play Cherry (Christy Martin). Everyone had experience with the core material. Most of us were actually gay. It's part of why I stayed in acting. Losing roles happens all the time."
