Hollywood heartthrob Glen Powell looked absolutely unrecognisable as he was spotted on set of his new TV series.
The A-list actor, 35, sported a prosthetic nose and a blonde wig, looking worlds away from his usual appearance.
He was on set of his new Hulu comedy series, titled Chad Powers.
Filming in Atlanta, Glen was pictured with tousled long hair and a fringe covering his face, with a moustache completing the look.
Showing off his muscles, he wore a tight-fitting blue sports shirt and bright yellow shorts, with the number ‘200’ printed across his front.
The series, which began filming earlier this month, is based on an Eli Manning sketch, following a quarterback whose college career ends after bad behaviour.
Glen, who also serves as co-creator and executive producer with Michael Waldron on the series, disguises himself as Chad Powers to save a struggling Southern football team and revive his own career.
‘We’re both diehard college football fans,’ they said in a statement to Deadline.
‘When we saw Eli as Chad Powers, we knew that was the way into a big, fun story about this world. We’re excited to be part of this team, and can’t wait to get Chad in the game. Think fast, run fast.’
This comes after Glen revealed he’s preparing to say goodbye to Hollywood.
While promoting his recent action film, Hit Man, earlier this year, Glen shared that he’s swapping his life in La La Land to return home to Texas.
The heartthrob, who fans have dubbed the ‘sexiest man alive’ and ‘drop dead gorgeous’ claimed he’s ‘earned the ability to go back to my family’ after 15 years working in Los Angeles.
The actor began his career on the likes of Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over, before being catapulted further to fame in Top Gun: Maverick and Sydney Sweeney-starring rom-com Anyone But You.
More recently, as well as appearing in Hit Man, which he also co-wrote and produced, he starred in Twisters, alongside Daisy Edgar-Jones.
It was Glen’s Top Gun appearance though that left him feeling as thought he could now ‘leave Hollywood’.
The 2022 Tom Cruise flick catapulted Glen to new levels of fame, after he admitted worrying about ‘depleting [his] bank account’.
In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, he revealed that after ‘getting to this point in Hollywood is that I can now leave Hollywood’, he was influenced by Matthew McConaughey to move to Austin.
‘He’s like, “Hollywood is the Matrix, man. You plug in, and it’s all fake world,”‘ the actor continued, recalling his conversation with the True Detective star.
He added: ‘He’s like “Then I go to Austin, and I unplug. It’s all real. Those are my friends, that’s my family, my actions matter there.”’
Powell said after talking to McConaughey, he realised ‘he’s right’ and noted that while it’s okay to live in the Matrix if you are always there, you can’t separate the two worlds.
