AceShowbiz - Glen Powell surprised Georgia Bulldogs fans at the team's game against Mississippi State. During the halftime show on Saturday, October 12, Powell led a fake football team onto the field, dressed in blue and white uniforms.
Social media footage captured the stadium booing the team as they emerged. It was said that Georgia Bulldogs fans were informed that the "Chad Powers" crew would be filming a scene, and they enthusiastically booed the team as requested.
Powell, known for his roles in "Top Gun: Maverick" and" Twisters", underwent a transformation for his role as Chad Powers. Inspired by Eli Manning's ESPN+ docuseries, "Chad Powers" follows a disgraced college quarterback who joins a struggling Southern football team. The series is produced by Powell and Michael Waldron, and executive produced by Eli and Peyton Manning.
The upcoming 10-episode Hulu series, featuring a cast including Steve Zahn, Perry Mattfeld, Wynn Everett, Frankie A. Rodriguez and Quentin Plair, aims to deliver a comedic take on the world of college football. While the release date remains undisclosed, Georgia fans unknowingly contributed to the production during the halftime break.
