Fans rediscover Glen Powell’s role in Batman

People are giving another look at Glen Powell’s short role in The Dark Knight Rises, following a Reddit user sharing an old picture of the actor from the 2012 movie.

A flurry of excitement ensued following a Reddit user’s posting of an old image of Glen Powell from a movie, triggering a torrent of responses throughout the site. Since the post was made, “Glen Powell as Batman” has become a popular topic, as numerous fans were taken aback to discover his role in the 2012 film directed by Christopher Nolan.

Regardless of its size, Powell has always cherished the experience he had in that role. In an interview with Vanity Fair, he reminisced about working with Nolan. According to him, “Every detail is etched in my memory. You never forget that sensation.” He further shared, “I recall on The Dark Knight Rises the sense of walking onto a set where everyone in the world dreamed of being there, didn’t they?

As a gamer, I’d say, “In The Dark Knight Rises, I got the chance to play a stock exchange trader who met an unpleasant fate at the hands of Bane. My screen time might have been limited, but let me tell you, landing that role was a dream come true for me. Working alongside director Christopher Nolan, one of the greatest in the industry, was an honor in itself. And then, there I was, sharing the set with Tom Hardy as he brought Bane to life. It was electrifying, almost surreal.

In the same conversation, Powell mentioned that he tried out for the role multiple times, even though it only had a small amount of screen time. However, Powell has some significant upcoming projects lined up. He’s set to feature in the upcoming remake of The Running Man, which is being directed by Edgar Wright. Furthermore, he will be appearing in a new movie that J.J. Abrams is directing for Warner Bros.
