 Glen Powell BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Glen Powell has firmly cemented his status as Hollywood’s man of the moment, and the past few days have only underscored his biographical ascent and pop-cultural pull. Beginning with the buzziest headline, all eyes were on him in New York City when he was repeatedly spotted with Olivia Jade Giannulli, the influencer daughter of Lori Loughlin. Deuxmoi exclusively published photos of Glen and Olivia out to dinner at Il Cantinori, followed by late-night bar sightings and a cozy car exit at 2am. While neither party has confirmed their relationship, insiders told Deuxmoi that this is not a brand-new pairing and that Glen and Olivia have actually "been seeing each other for a while now." Fans and gossip watchers are now abuzz considering whether this could be his first public romance since the highly publicized split with Gigi Paris last year.

Powell’s professional star is only burning brighter. As Popverse reports, he’s leading Edgar Wright’s much-anticipated remake of The Running Man, set for a November premiere and already being heralded as one of the year’s likely box office heavyweights. Not content to stop at blockbusters, Powell’s new Hulu series Chad Powers arrives this month. To promote it, he shared a viral story with Entertainment Weekly about getting intentionally booed in disguise during halftime at a University of Georgia football game last year—winning over fans for his wit and willingness to play along with the joke. The crowd’s playful jeering became a TikTok sensation and has helped stoke excitement for the show, in which Powell plays a disgraced star football player going undercover.

Behind the scenes, his momentum hasn’t slowed either. Collider just revealed that Oscar-winning director Ron Howard has signed Glen for a brand-new firefighter thriller, dashing any prior rumors that he was simply fronting a Backdraft remake. This original project, now just getting underway, is being positioned as a high-stakes addition to Powell’s growing list of leading-man credits.

In the echo chamber of social media and celebrity coverage, there’s still some lingering chatter from his ex-girlfriend Gigi Paris, who recounted the painful unraveling of their relationship on the Too Much podcast this week. She described feeling “fed to the dogs” by the PR-driven romance rumors surrounding Glen and Anyone But You co-star Sydney Sweeney, which she claims were amped up to juice the film’s now-legendary box office success. Variety notes both Powell and Sweeney later confirmed to The New York Times that they had, indeed, played into the rumors onscreen and off for the sake of the movie.

Between high-profile romance speculation, leading blockbuster roles, viral marketing stunts, and a career that shows no signs of slowing down, Glen Powell is not just in the news—he is the news by every possible metric, and his choices this week are likely to reverberate through both his personal and professional bios for many years to come.
