Glen Powell Teases Taylor Swift Cameo as Hulu’s Chad Powers Sets Sept. 30 Premiere

The star frames the series as a grounded ensemble comedy spun from Eli Manning’s viral undercover prank.

Overview

  • The show debuts on Hulu Sept. 30 with two episodes, then rolls out weekly on Tuesdays through the Oct. 28 season finale.
  • Powell floated the possibility of a Taylor Swift appearance in a potential Season 2, emphasizing it as an idea rather than a confirmed plan.
  • Perry Mattfeld said the team will work to get the series in front of Swift, joking about a connection through Travis Kelce.
  • The series follows a disgraced quarterback who disguises himself to walk on at another program, created by Powell and Michael Waldron from Eli Manning’s ESPN+ bit; Eli and Peyton Manning executive produce and Eli appears.
  • Powell said the comedy hinges on performances grounded in reality, with the ensemble cast key to making the premise land.
