Actor Glen Powell is making waves in Hollywood through a number of roles in high-profile films like Top Gun: Maverick, Hit Man, Anyone but You, and Twisters–but could he do a comic book movie next?
Powell told The Playlist that he enjoys DC and Marvel movies, but no one from those companies has called and asked him to star–at least not yet (Powell has, however, played a small role in a Batman movie already). “You know I’ve never gotten a call from DC or Marvel,” he said. “But I’m a fan of everything they do.”
Powell went on to say that he saw Deadpool & Wolverine and said he thoroughly enjoyed it. “I think what Shawn [Levy] and Ryan [Reynolds] did with that is like extraordinary and just such a fun flavor for audiences. And I cheer for them. And I love what [they do],” he said.
Powell also praised DC Studios bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran, saying he believes the pair of them taking over the film studio will be “really good for that business.”
Powell has appeared in a DC film, though. He had a very small role in The Dark Knight Rises as a stock broker who gets choked out by Bane (Tom Hardy). Powell has also spoken about his desire to play Batman one day, saying he has a “wild take” on the character.
In May this year, Powell talked about how he wants to avoid “Marvel fare” in regards to future jobs. He said about future roles, “It’s about choosing where you’re going to make an audience happy and where you’re going to make yourself happy.”
