Texas native Glen Powell thinks movie studios focus too much on the tastes of New York and Los Angeles, saying ‘vast parts of America have been underserved’
Glen Powell is an anachronism – a broad-appeal Hollywood hunk the likes of which we haven’t seen since Tom Cruise was dangling from ropes in sleek bank vaults. And he’s pushing for the types of movies that can bring Middle America to the multiplex.
Powell has covered all corners of Hollywood in his rollercoaster of a career. He started his career in children’s movies, starring in 2003’s Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over. Anyone But You helped shape Powell’s view of Hollywood’s output and the way it’s letting audiences down. The Twisters star is from the “vast part” of America that he hopes to serve with blockbusters from a bygone era. And there’s no questioning that that’s where Powell is most comfortable. After 15 years in Hollywood, Powell moved back to his home state of Texas this year.
