“I don’t get it”—Zoey Deutch Hilariously Squashes Glen Powell’s Rise to Fame in a Chat With Josh Horowitz

From working alongside Tom Cruise to reviving the rom-com genre with the help of Sydney Sweeney and also earning comparisons with Ryan Gosling, Glen Powell has achieved the shiny thing that has fame as its name. However, as he moves towards touching the sky, his roots have shied away from engaging in his flight, or more specifically, Zoey Deutch has made a table turner statement about his fame.

As the 2024 chapter comes to an end, there are few established points that Hollywood and pop culture and Hollywood are moving forward with: We need to thank Beyoncé; Drake could not beat Kendrick Lamar in the rap battle, and Glen Powell is the next big thing. When asked her opinion on the latter by Josh Horowitz, Zoey Deutch deadpanned “I don’t get it.”

Breaking into laughter just moments later, it became clear that Deutch was only joking around, giving fans an insight into the comfortable banter she still shares with her old co-star.

Back in the 00’s, romantic comedies were a raging monster, with every movie, despite its fairly petite budget, earning major bucks at the box office while also adhering to the audiences. However, as the sighs surrounding how great the genre used to be got heavier, Glen Powell stepped in with Anyone But You and hit a banger, but this perfection was a result of practice.

Powell has made many attempts at romantic comedy; however Set It Up alongside Zoey Deutch in 2018 with the classic plot of getting two bosses to fall in love with each other had everything going for itself as a rom-com, minus the scandalous marketing of Anyone But You that came at the expense of the actors, to make it a ball out of the park.
