Glen Powell wants an Oscar
Glen Powell tells GQ Magazine that while he doesn't dwell on it, he'd still like to win an Oscar.
"In some weird way, it changes how people perceive you. And I'm looking at all the men in my peer group — they've all got one."
Powell was passed over for awards recognition for his work on Set It Up, Top Gun: Maverick, Anyone But You, Everyone Wants Some!!, Hidden Figures, Twisters, Scream Queens, and Chad Powers. He is hoping the upcoming blockbuster The Running Man will rectify that situation.

I'm not invested enough to actually read the article, but "I'm looking at all the men in my peer group — they've all got one." If they've all got one, and you don't, perhaps you are not their peer. Who is he referring to?

Will Chord be there? Or did their "friendship" end so badly they still aren't speaking??

I didn’t get one until I was in my mid-40s and fat and I had to roll around in the snow and mud to get the fucking thing.

Wanting one, vs having the acting ability, and an audience and peer group behind you in your project, are different things.

Robert de Niro, Al Pacino, Jack Nicholson, Daniel Day-Lewis... peers like that.

R14: And don’t forget you can always be nominated for an honorary one. They’re pretty easy to get. Just ask Angela Bassett.

It’s Spanx for men, Manx, to keep your stomach in. Shapewear for men is in now.

We give Oscars to men with more convincingly stuffed crotches.

He's one of the "Podwall Boys." I'm sure he has stories to tell.

He has bad nipple placement. Why is one of his nipples under his armpit?

I guess that, with this cover, GQ Is officially a gay magazine, right?
I don't envision any straight man at this point buying a magazine with a guy almost showing peen on cover.

If you look at the full photo, it's clearly not his peen. He's standing behind a cut-out photo of a bodybuilder that goes up to where that line is on his stomach---that's why he's got two navels (one real, one of the bodybuilder) in the photo.

What. The. Fuck! Who is in his "peer group"?!! Is he kidding? He's a thoroughly annoying personality.

OK, given his age, let's assume his "peer group" won their Oscars since 2010. Which of the following would you say were his peers (a) age-wise and (b) at acting?
Adrien Brody, Cillian Murphy, Brendan Fraser, Will Smith, Anthony Hopkins, Joaquin Phoenix, Rami Malek, Gary Oldman, Casey Affleck, Leo, Eddie Redmayne, Daniel Day-Lewis, Jean Dujardin, Colin Firth.
He must be best buds with Casey Affleck.
Even in Supporting Actor, there's Kieren Culkin, Daniel Kaluuya and maybe Ke Huy Quan around the approx age group, but is he comparing himself with RJD, Mahershala Ali, JK Simmons, Mark Rylance...?

Ok but he’s not going to get one with the movies he’s making. He seems to be going for blockbusters over prestige films.

Sounds like a remark a stupid person would say. He’s nowhere near an Oscar so he sounds delusional like Sydney Sweeney,

He’s the Millennial McConaughey, a Texan with some talent but a massive amount of ambition.
I’d never pick him as somehow who should win an Oscar, but I would never count him out as someone who will actually win one.
