If it wasn't for Denzel Washington, the world might've never known about Glen Powell. On the May 19 episode of “Sunday Sitdown with Willie Geist,” Powell reflected on his early acting career, including doing small-time roles like playing Danger Dude in 2006’s “The Safe Side: Internet Safety.” “We all get our start somewhere,” he joked of his “Napoleon Dynamite knock-off” character.
According to Deadline, the rom-com is now the top-grossing R-rated comedy domestically since 2015 and the highest-grossing R-rated rom-com globally since 2016’s “Bridget Jones’s Baby.” Powell loved working with Sweeney so much that he says they’re probably going to do something again in the future. “My agent’s going to hate me for saying this, but we are reading ,” he said. However, fans have a lot to look forward to until then.
