Glen Powell BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Glen Powell keeps making headlines as his career rockets from strength to strength in October 2025. Paramount Pictures just unleashed the explosive trailer for The Running Man, directed by Edgar Wright and starring Powell as Ben Richards, an everyman battling for his life on a dystopian game show to save his daughter. The gritty, adrenaline-soaked footage features Powell performing wild stunts—escaping an exploding car, dodging gunfire, and running through flames—making the November 14 film release one of Powell’s highest-profile action turns yet, supported by stars like Josh Brolin and William H. Macy, as reported by ABC Audio.
On the publicity circuit, Powell’s dynamic presence is being felt everywhere. He recently kicked off his press tour for The Running Man, mere weeks after promoting his new Hulu series Chad Powers. At New York Comic Con, Powell reportedly flew straight to Dallas for the iconic Texas vs. Oklahoma college football game—a move that’s become a bit of a fan favorite, especially since his Top Gun: Maverick co-star Danny Ramirez pranked him mid-flight, filming Powell signing a GQ cover in a now-viral airport video. EntertainmentNow highlights that this public prank, showing Ramirez running up like an enthusiastic fan, has been widely shared and warmly received online, adding to the charm of Powell’s real-life friendships with his Maverick co-stars.
Powell’s ties to Top Gun continue to stoke fan excitement. In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Powell confirmed his group chat with the cast is still going strong, often filled with congratulatory messages for each other’s latest career wins. While rumors about Top Gun 3 swirl, Powell insists no new details have surfaced yet, but behind the scenes, the camaraderie remains a staple of his off-screen life.
NBC just announced that Powell will make his Saturday Night Live hosting debut on November 15 with Olivia Dean as musical guest, following hosts Miles Teller and Nikki Glaser earlier that month. This marks a new milestone for Powell’s public visibility and comedic chops, positioning him even more firmly in mainstream pop culture.
On the personal front, speculation about his relationship with Olivia Jade Giannulli has surfaced after they were seen together, but Us Weekly clarifies that they are close friends, not romantically involved, as confirmed by sources close to both stars.
Meanwhile, industry buzz continues as Avengers: Doomsday writer Michael Waldron told The Playlist he thinks Powell would make an outstanding Nova if Marvel calls, further fueling fan-casting debates for major franchises. Powell’s multifaceted appeal, high-profile projects, and genuine celebrity friendships are securing his place as one of Hollywood’s most likable and bankable stars in late 2025.
