Hollywood Star Unrecognizable After Dramatic Hair Transformation
Glen Powell, known for his handsome looks in Top Gun: Maverick, is taking on a whole new appearance in his upcoming Hulu movie, Chad Powers. The trailer dropped on social media recently, revealing Glen’s striking transformation with shaggy hair and a prosthetic nose. In his caption, Glen mentioned that he co-created the show with his friend Michael Waldron.
In Chad Powers, Glen plays Russ Holliday, a college quarterback who misses his chance at going pro but decides to make a comeback disguised as Chad Powers. Despite his refusal to remove his helmet and skip showers, Chad impresses the coaches with his talent.
This isn’t the first time Glen has undergone a physical transformation for a role. In Top Gun, he had to get in top shape for the iconic shirtless volleyball scene. His trainer Nick Mitchell shared how they achieved Glen’s chiseled look in just seven weeks by focusing on his ‘mirror muscles’ – chest, shoulders, traps, and abs. Glen followed a strict diet of 2800 calories, emphasizing protein intake.
With a busy filming schedule, Glen couldn’t train five or six days a week, so his program was tailored to improve his mirror muscles. Nick mentioned that while they couldn’t build massive muscles in such a short time, they were able to enhance Glen’s physique to look leaner and more powerful. Glen put in a lot of hard work to achieve his desired shape for the role.
