Glen Powell Recalls Bombing an Early-Career Script Read with Dustin Hoffman: ‘I’m Watching Him and I’m Losing Him’

Glen Powell is known for his confident charisma and star power, but early in his career, he found himself so starstruck by Dustin Hoffman that he bombed a script reading with the legendary actor.

Powell recounted the humbling story during a recent appearance on “Hot Ones.” “My first week [in Hollywood], I found myself at a dinner sitting next to Dustin Hoffman,” he recalled. “He saw a movie I did called ‘The Great Debaters,’ and the fact that he saw this movie just blew my mind. I was like ‘This is the coolest moment of my entire life.’”
