Glen Powell Says Lookalike Contest Winner Gets ‘Their Parents or Any Family Member of Their Choice’ a Cameo in His Next Film


Glen Powell called into his own lookalike contest in Austin, Texas on Sunday to offer the winner a very special prize: a cameo in his next film.

Braunstein received $5, a cowboy hat, free queso from Torchy’s Tacos for a year and a special message from Powell himself, who was on FaceTime with his mom during the event. The Powell lookalike contest is just the latest in a string of similar events taking place all over the world, including recent Jeremy Allen White competitions in New York and Chicago and a Harry Styles-themed meet-up in London earlier this month. It all started at the end of October, when a Timothée Chalamet lookalike contest was held in New York City and crashed by the actor, causing a social media frenzy and dozens of copycat gatherings.
