Glenn Powell as a stockbroker in The Dark Knight Rises
Glenn Powell, now a prominent figure in Hollywood, owes a significant debt to Christopher Nolan for his early break. Before his breakout roles in films like Top Gun: Maverick and Twister, Powell had a brief but memorable appearance in Nolan's 2012 blockbuster, The Dark Knight Rises.
In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Powell reminisced about his early days in the industry. He revealed that he "fought for every inch" to land the role in Nolan's film. The experience of working with the renowned director and witnessing the electrifying energy on set, particularly when Tom Hardy appeared as Bane, was a pivotal moment in his career.
Despite his limited screen time as a stockbroker who falls victim to Bane's wrath, Powell cherishes the opportunity and the lessons learned from the experience. He carries the lessons and the sense of awe he felt on the set of The Dark Knight Rises to every project he undertakes.
Since then, Powell has gone on to star in numerous high-profile films, solidifying his status as a leading man. He remains grateful to Nolan for recognizing his potential and giving him a chance early in his career.
