The Chad Powers cast has been revealed!
Glen Powell stars in the half-hour comedy, premiering September 30 on Hulu.
The first teaser for the show debuted during Game 4 of the NBA Finals and introduced fans to Glen‘s new transformation. Playing quarterback Russ Holliday, whose career implodes after bad behavior, he disguises himself as the “extremely ugly” Chad Powers to join a struggling Southern football team.
“Everyone says I’m done with football,” he declares in the teaser. “There’s no such thing as bad press.” Fitted with a wig and prosthetic nose, he tells the DSLR: “If I can’t play as Russ, I’ll play as someone else.”
The series is based on Eli Manning’s viral sketch, originally produced by NFL Films and Omaha Productions as part of Eli’s Places on ESPN+. Glen co-created the series with Michael Waldron (Loki), and the two co-wrote the pilot.
