Glen Powell‘s on fire — not just in Hollywood but on the field too — showing out as he filmed his new sports TV comedy, “Chad Powers.”
The actor’s stepping into the cleats of Oregon Ducks college quarterback Russ Holliday — and you can see him stretching out before the cameras roll in Atlanta … featuring him dodging Georgia Bulldogs defenders and charging toward a winning touchdown.
These scenes are all about reliving his character’s glory days, with Glen rocking a youthful mullet, compared to the shaggier look he’s been sporting on other filming days.
The Hulu TV series tracks disgraced football player Holliday’s wild ride — he dons a prosthetic disguise as ‘Chad Powers’ to give a flailing Southern football team a much-needed boost and revive his own career.
The role’s inspired by Eli Manning’s ESPN+ docuseries “Eli’s Places” … where Eli went undercover in a wig and prosthetic makeup to dive into the walk-on process for college football.
As for Glen … it’s another high-profile gig for him, proving from “Top Gun: Maverick” and “Twisters” to quirky “Chad Powers” … he can tackle just about anything these days!
