Glen Powell Offers Hilarious Reaction After 'This Is Us' Star Is Misidentified As Him At Golden Globes

The 'Anyone But You' star had the perfect response after 'The Hollywood Reporter' misidentified Justin Hartley as Powell in two posts about the 2024 Golden Globes on X, formerly Twitter.

This year's Golden Globes had many memorable moments, but one of the biggest didn't happen on the stage at the Beverly Hilton but rather on Twitter, when actors Glen Powell and Justin Hartley were confused for each other.

Powell is the star of 2022's Top Gun: Maverick and last year's Anyone But You. Hartley, on the other hand, starred in TV's This Is Us and the forthcoming CBS series Tracker.


But The Hollywood Reporter—yes, that Hollywood Reporter—seemed to think it was the other way around, and it caused fans all over Twitter to lose their minds.

Many stars, of course, would be deeply offended by this, but not Powell. He took to Twitter to call out The Hollywood Reporter's mistake in the most hilarious way possible.

Along with a screenshot of The Hollywood Reporter's blunder, Powell wrote:

"I think this is the perfect time to announce that @justinhartley and I will be starring in the most boring body-swap movie of all time."

It was the perfect response to a truly astonishing mistake, given that The Hollywood Report is, you know, one of the Bibles of the entertainment industry and has been for nearly 100 years.

It began when THR misidentified Hartley as Powell, who didn't even attend the Globes, as he walked the show's red carpet.

But it wasn't just one simple, quickly deleted mistake. THR then misidentified Hartley again in a photo of him kissing his wife, Sofia Pernas, moments later.

It's the type of mix-up you'd expect from a fan, but one of the industry's own trade publications? Not so much. Naturally, the internet found it hilarious.

And people loved Powell's response to the gaffe just as much.







Powell's a gold sport and all, but this is also a movie idea that might have legs. Someone get him a pitch meeting!
