Glen Powell BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Glen Powell has been capturing headlines this week both for his professional momentum and personal candor. In the days leading up to September 13, 2025, the actor broke his silence regarding the fallout from his breakup with longtime girlfriend Gigi Paris, responding for the first time to her comments about feeling “made a fool” during the Sydney Sweeney romance rumors. According to GQ Magazine, Powell made it clear he holds “nothing but love and respect” for Paris and acknowledged everyone’s right to their own narrative following a breakup, diplomatically stating, “Relationships are really hard. And when two people break up, they each go to their own brunch and they will each tell their own narrative.” This comes after Paris appeared on Emma Klipstein’s Too Much podcast in June, expressing her distress over how Powell and Sweeney’s PR-driven chemistry for the Anyone But You press tour allegedly impacted her own relationship and public image. Notably, Sydney Sweeney also officially ended her engagement with producer Jonathan Davino around the same time, fueling public curiosity, further stoked when she attended Powell’s sister’s wedding in Dallas. Powell’s mother stated definitively that the two stars are “definitely not together,” emphasizing that Sweeney was only there as a friend.
On the career front Powell remains in high demand, set to headline the upcoming adaptation of Stephen King’s The Running Man, directed by Edgar Wright, in a major role that’s likely to shape his big-screen stature for years. There’s renewed buzz about the prospect of Top Gun 3 after the blockbuster success of Top Gun: Maverick—a film Powell nearly turned down before Tom Cruise personally convinced him, advice Powell says he still relies on as he navigates Hollywood and increasing levels of fame. Cruise’s suggestion to “turn down the noise” has guided Powell through both media storms and career choices, with Powell continuing intensive training for challenging new roles.
Powell’s move back to Austin, Texas, inspired by a conversation with Matthew McConaughey, has sparked notable attention in media and real estate circles. He recently revealed to People Magazine that the decision was driven by a deep desire to be closer to family and prioritize comfort over Hollywood glitz. He’s currently finishing his degree at UT Austin and celebrated his sister’s wedding earlier this year. Family roots also inspired the launch of his new condiment brand, Smash Kitchen, with the Powells perfecting sauces and flavors together. Early reviews from local and national outlets highlight Smash Kitchen as both a heartfelt entrepreneurial effort and a clever play on Powell’s “smash” successes in film.
On social media, discussions about Powell trend around his business ventures, potential casting news, and ongoing rumors about his relationship with Sweeney. Long-term, the developments with his family move, entrepreneurial ambitions, and lead role in a Stephen King adaptation carry more biographical weight than tabloid speculation, marking Powell as both a rising Hollywood power and an authentic Texan returning home.
