Glen Powell has been known to cast his parents as extras in his films, and he broke down their rodeo appearance in ‘Twisters’ exclusively with Us Weekly
Glen Powell has a history of casting his parents in his films — and his next high-profile project, Twisters, is no exception. Keeping audiences on their toes by sparking a Where’s Waldo?-type search, the movie star tells Us where you can spot them in this soon-to-be blockbuster.
In addition to their endless cameos, Cyndy and Glen Sr. make sure they show up to support Glen whenever possible — but that doesn’t stop them from playfully trolling him. At the May premiere of his Netflix film Hit Man, the duo hilariously followed the actor around with huge signs that read, “Stop trying to make Glen Powell happen” and “It’s never gonna happen.'
“I think that's maybe the greatest gift that my parents gave me is never, never making me sit in things I didn't want to sit in and letting me chase the passions I wanted to chase no matter what,” he told Us. “If I was sitting in the outfield of baseball and I was picking dandelions, I was like, ‘Yeah, I'm not really sure I'm meant for the outfield here let's go do something else. Or I played violin for a bit. And all of a sudden I was like, ‘No, not into this anymore.
One thing Glen will be chasing this summer is tornados with the release of Twisters, which serves as a sequel to the 1996 film. The actor stars as Tyler Owens, a charming but reckless social media superstar who thrives on sharing his storm-chasing adventures. However, when multiple storm systems cover central Oklahoma, he’s forced to team up Edgar-Jones’ Kate Carter as they attempt to fight for their lives.
