Glen Powell Already Has The Hollywood Leading Man Uniform Down Pat
![Glen Powell attends Twisters London photocall on July 09, 2024 in London, England.](https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2024/7/18/d90f3518/london-england-july-09.jpg?w=414&h=589&fit=crop&crop=faces&q=50&dpr=2)
Glen Powell’s Twisters co-star Daisy Edgar-Jones declared the next few months “a Glenn Powell summer.” And, well, she isn’t wrong.
The actor has suddenly become the most sought after man in Hollywood with a box office-shattering role in Anyone But You (a steamy rom com also starring Sydney Sweeney), Netflix’s critically adored Hit Man, and now Twisters. Powell’s been acting for the better part of two decades, but his profile really began to rise after a supporting role in the Tom Cruise epic Top Gun: Maverick. And he hasn’t looked back.
Aside from his acting roles, usually some sort of smug yet charming character, Powell has quickly learned how to nail a particular brand of “leading man style” on the red carpet. No, he isn’t taking as many risks as fellow Hollywood heartthrobs like Jacob Elordi or Timothée Chalamet. Instead, Powell is sticking to dapper bow ties, Gucci and Brioni tuxedos, and the occasional flash of male cleavage. Fashionistas might roll their eyes when they see a male actor in another boring black suit, but Powell’s movie star good looks and killer smile proves sometimes a gentlemen doesn’t need much more than that.
Below, a look through Glen Powell’s best red carpet moments.
2024: Twisters Press Tour

2024: SAG Awards
The cummerbund scored a major win at the 2024 SAG Awards with Powell’s Brioni suit.

Powell tied in the black of his jacket’s lapel with the sheen of his dress shoes at the 2023 Critics Choice Awards.

We usually sigh when men wear suits like this one, but we’ll give Powell’s 2023 Golden Globes look—courtesy of Brioni—a pass. He, simply, stuck to what works.
2022: MTV Movie & TV Awards
Powell definitely knows his way around an Oxford shirt, but this V-neck top brought a casual finish to this particular red carpet moment.
2022: Top Gun: Maverick Global Premiere
Boys can method dress, too! Powell mixed in a bit of military green for the Top Gun: Maverick premiere.
