After the recent Golden Globes, Glen Powell might have emerged as Hollywood’s new hotshot, potentially overshadowing Bradley Cooper, who previously reigned as the most irritating red carpet figure. Powell’s ambition for the title seems unmatched.
Powell, who gained fame from Tom Cruise’s “Top Gun: Maverick,” is currently thriving in multiple projects. Whether it be his steamy romantic comedy with Sydney Sweeney or leading the upcoming “Twisters” reboot, he’s clearly been in demand. His writing contributions to “Hit-Man” even earned him a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical.
As for his Golden Globes appearance, Powell certainly dressed to impress with a stylish tuxedo. However, his actions may raise eyebrows — like mimicking Cooper’s habit of bringing family members to the event and donning sunglasses indoors, making one wonder what he was thinking.
Just like Bradley, Glen embraces his parental support
At the 2025 Golden Globes, Glen Powell chose to celebrate with his parents rather than a romantic partner, honoring family over a date at this significant event, much like Bradley Cooper in the past. For Powell, the night was about appreciating his achievements with his loving family.
Powell shared with E! News how special it was to have his family by his side, especially since they had been part of his creative journey with “Hit-Man.” His mom expressed pride in his accomplishments, attributing it to their long history of support.
Regarding his sunglasses, Powell didn’t explain why he chose to wear them. However, comedian Nikki Glaser playfully admired the look and joked about needing the shades to avoid his gaze, highlighting how even questionable fashion choices can get mixed reviews.
