Man of the Moment:

Actor Glen Powell is certainly Hollywood's man of the moment.  He's been lighting up the big screen in several blockbusters over the last 12 months.  Some are saying he's the next Tom Cruise.  I hope not.  I have great respect for Cruise's early career, but the last two decades he's mostly only making formulaic franchise films.   Cruise is no longer taking the risks he took in the 80's and 90's.  

Powell is so good, and so likable, I hope he moves back and forth between summer blockbusters and roles in eclectic and interesting films.  I've been following Powell's career for almost a decade, back to his time on Scream Queens and his nude scene in Sex Ed in 2014.  Check out my previous posts featuring Howell on FH HERE:

Just Because: Glen Powell

Actor Glen Powell had quite a year. A mostly naked return to Scream Queens and appearances several high profile films including Everybody Wants Some and as John Glenn in Hidden Figures. When I first featured Glen in 2015, (HERE:) I wasn't sure I was going to stick with watching Scream Queens.

I didn't. The show was a bit over the top for me and I can only handle Emma Roberts in teenie tiny dozes. But... Powell's short return this past season did lead to some pretty hot and hilarious shower and locker room scenes with John Stamos. I caught enough clips, and promotional shots to know they both should have their own show, on cable of course, to continue their very powerful on screen chemistry.

Glen Powell: Elephant In The Room

I haven't decided if I am going to stick with Scream Queens, I am not sure it has enough meat on the bones with regards to story and writing for me. There is plenty of beef (cake) however with the male cast, Nick Jonas, Diego Boneta, Lucien Laviscount, Oliver Hudson and the deliciously talented Glen Powell.

Powell steals every scene he's in even with the eye candy that is Nick Jonas, the talent that is Jamie Lee Curtis and the not so subtle acting style of co-star Emma Roberts. Powell's talent has taken the token 'frat boy' and turned him into one of the show's most interesting characters. Powell balances all the typical frat boy traits of arrogance and privilege with a goofy sexy appeal. Lets hope the writing does the talented actor justice in future episodes.

Sex Ed (2014)

Horror

For me, Scream Queens didn't live up to the months of hype. Jamie Lee Curtis always rocks and the lawn mowing scene was truly horrifying, but other than that the writing was rather clunky and unoriginal. I still struggle to like Emma Roberts and the editing (especially the awkward editing in of Ariana Grande into scenes she clearly wasn't there to be fully apart of) was a bit obvious and off putting. The three male leads however were quite delicious, especially Nick Jonas who has never looked hotter.

I have always thought Jonas was hot, but never sure about how talented he was as singer and actor. In Scream Queens however, he found his role and was absolutely adorable, especially in his scenes with co-star Glen Powell. Despite not loving the pilot, I was disappointed when Jonas's character was killed off (even though he was splayed in his tighty whities). Thankfully, the twist ending will ensure we see more of Nick in the future.
