As a film enthusiast who has been fortunate enough to witness the rise of some truly remarkable talents in Hollywood, I must say that both Glen Powell and Ryan Gosling are standouts in their own right. Their unique charisma, versatility, and commitment to their craft have undeniably left an indelible mark on cinema.
Glen Powell has pushed back against recent speculations that his popularity exceeds that of fellow Hollywood star: Ryan Gosling. Although Powell has been in high demand for film projects lately and some have drawn parallels between him and his “Top Gun: Maverick” co-star Tom Cruise, who can fill theaters just by his name, Powell remains humble about it all. When an anonymous producer proposed that Powell enjoys a broader appeal than Gosling, and hinted that Gosling only appeals to female audiences, Powell gracefully refuted this claim on social media.
The whole situation kicked off when the producer pointed out that Powell had solidified his status as a movie star with audiences saying, “‘People go to movies to see him,’” but subtly threw some shade at Gosling by mentioning, “‘Unlike an actor like Ryan Gosling whose popularity is primarily among female fans, Glen seems to appeal to both genders.’” Keeping his cool, Powell responded gracefully on his social media page with, “‘Gosling is a legend. I’m just Glen.’” In reference to Gosling’s popular Oscar-nominated song from the blockbuster film, Barbie, “I’m Just Ken,” the issue was swiftly resolved in much the same way.
Ryan Gosling Appeals to a Variety of Audiences
Ryan Gosling possesses a charm reminiscent of a movie star, yet he’s diversified his career by tackling roles in various genres, revealing different aspects of his talent. He has proven versatile, taking on unusual characters like in “Lars and the Real Girl,” intense dramas such as “Blue Valentine,” light-hearted comedies and romantic stories like “Crazy, Stupid, Love,” artistic action films like “Drive,” and big-budget blockbusters like “Barbie” and “The Fall Guy.” While his popularity may not always translate directly to box office success, it would be misleading to suggest that his appeal is solely for women.
It’s not suggesting that Powell isn’t forging his own career trajectory, hinting at an actor who boasts impressive box office appeal. The success of Top Gun: Maverick might have been inevitable, but Powell undeniably contributed to its momentum as a stepping stone. His real test came when he shared the screen with Sydney Sweeney in Anyone But You, a film that surprisingly emerged as one of the biggest theatrical rom-coms in recent years. Following this, his decision to star in and co-write Hit Man, a Netflix production, was strategic because it highlighted his versatility in a single role that earned him critical acclaim. This summer, he revived old-school disaster movie thrills with Twisters, another box office hit that solidified his popularity.
Lance Powell possesses an appealing charm that resonates with audiences of all genders, much like Tom Cruise who has played a significant role in shaping his career. Upcoming projects such as Edgar Wright’s remake of “The Running Man”, collaborations with J.J. Abrams and the film “Huntington” from A24, and potentially a new version of “Heaven Can Wait”, are all set to showcase Powell’s box office prowess. For fans who prefer to watch him at home, there is also the Hulu comedy series “Chad Powers”. With his busy schedule, it seems that both Powell and Ryan Gosling have plenty of room to excel in the competitive acting world.
