A Priceless Prank Gone Too Far
Glen Powell, the charming actor known for his roles in Top Gun: Maverick and Set It Up, recently revealed a hilarious prank he played on his sister, Leslie Powell. The prank, which involved a phone call with former costar Joe Jonas, had Leslie frantically searching for her brother in jails across Georgia. The story? Glen and Joe pretended to have hit someone with a golf cart and needed bail.
Leslie, who was unaware of the setup, took the call seriously, diving into action as if it were a real emergency. Glen confessed that while the prank was funny, he probably wouldn’t pull that kind of stunt again. “She’s just too sweet,” he admitted, reflecting on his sister’s concern for him. And as it turns out, Leslie wasn’t about to let her brother have the last laugh—she came up with a prank of her own to get back at him.
Leslie Powell: A Talent in Her Own Right
While Glen’s prank might have been a fun sibling moment, it’s clear that Leslie is no stranger to the entertainment world herself. A talented musician, she has worked on film scores for movies starring her brother, such as Twisters and Anyone But You. Glen has openly praised Leslie for her musical genius, calling her “no doubt my favorite artist of all.”
Their close-knit relationship goes beyond just the usual sibling bond; they share a deep admiration for each other’s talents and accomplishments. It’s a connection that goes hand-in-hand with the creativity they bring to their respective fields.
The Powell Family: A Legacy of Togetherness
Family reunions are a regular event for the Powells, who often gather at their family ranch in East Texas. Glen’s older sister, Lauren Powell, lives nearby in Texas and has four children, adding to the warmth and chaos of these family gatherings. The Powells clearly cherish their time together, supporting one another through both personal milestones and professional endeavors.
A New Chapter in Glen’s Career
As Glen and his siblings share laughs and family moments, the actor is also gearing up for the release of his upcoming dark comedy, How to Make a Killing, which hits theaters on February 20. The film promises to showcase his comedic chops, adding yet another layer to his growing career in Hollywood.
