Chad Powers: Glen Powell's Russ Holliday Isn't Done with Football
Set to premiere on Hulu on September 30th, here's a new teaser for Glen Powell and Michael Waldron's half-hour comedy series Chad Powers.
When we first meet up with Glen Powell and Michael Waldron's half-hour Hulu comedy series Chad Powers, Powell's Russ Holliday's wild ways have finally gotten the best of him, costing the up-and-coming QB a chance at an epically successful college and professional football career. But when one star falls, another is set to step up and shine – and that man's name is Chad Powers… who Powell is also playing. They're not twins – they're the same person. With the series premiere set for September 30th, we have a new teaser to pass along that finds Holliday doing the only thing left that he can do – invent Powers and join a college's struggling football team so that he can stay in the game (in more ways than one).
Along with Powell, the upcoming streaming comedy series stars Perry Mattfeld as Ricky, Quentin Plair as Coach Byrd, Wynn Everett as Tricia, Frankie A. Rodriguez as Danny, and Steve Zahn as Jake Hudson. Set to hit screens in Fall 2025, here's a look back at the official teaser that was released back in December 2024, followed by the official logline/overview for Hulu's Chad Powers:
When bad behavior nukes hotshot QB Russ Holliday's college career, he disguises himself and walks onto a struggling Southern football team as the talented, affable Chad Powers. Based on the sketch produced by NFL Films and Omaha Productions that aired on ESPN+ as part of the Eli's Places series, the half-hour comedy from 20th Television will stream on Hulu. Powell and Waldron co-wrote the pilot.
Hulu's Chad Powers stems from co-creators and executive producers Powell and Waldron. Eli Manning serves as executive producer along with Omaha Productions' Peyton Manning, Jamie Horowitz, Ben Brown, and ESPN. Waldron and Adam Fasullo are executive producing for Anomaly Pictures. Luvh Rakhe will executive produce, and Tony Yacenda will serve as director and executive producer. Powell serves as co-creator and is co-writing and executive-producing under his production co-banner, Barnstorm Productions.
