Glen Powell Is the Star of ‘Twisters,’ But His Dog Brisket Was the Star of the L.A. Premiere

Twisters opens in theaters on July 19. It marks Powell’s latest big screen film, following the limited theatrical release of Netflix’s Hit Man and the wide release of Anyone But One, in which he starred opposite Sydney Sweeney.

“I’ve always believed you should just keep living your life, so I’ve never really noticed it. I think this is the first year that I’ve felt a difference in the type of people who are fans, even just for my family,” Powell told Rolling Stone last year about his sudden uptick in stardom. “I’m very close to my family. I keep my family very close, and I tend to put my family out front. I’ve realized not everyone is a good type of fan, and not everyone has your best interest in mind. It’s just made me a little bit more aware of protecting the people around me that I love.”

He added: “My favorite thing that’s happening now, because I think I’ve played in so many different boxes and genres, is I can tell when someone walks up to me what role they probably recognize me from based on their energy and their age. It’s very fun. My favorite, though, and one that throws me off constantly, is when I’m walking by a construction site, and a guy’s like, “Hey, dude, you mind if I ask you a question?” I’m like, ‘Oh, it’s going to be Top Gun.’ He’s like, ‘Are you in Scream Queens?’ It’s hilarious. Also, the number of professional athletes, the biggest, most terrifying men you’ve ever seen in your whole life, are all Scream Queens fans. It surprises me every time.”
