Glen Powell doesn’t care to wade into the political landscape one bit.
“Over time, I realized that politics divide people,” Powell, 37, revealed in an Esquire profile published Wednesday, October 8. “People trying to prove their point — for me, it’s the worst version of a conversation. I genuinely do not like the discourse. It’s not as healthy as it once was.”
Because of the allegedly unhealthy politically-charged conversations, Powell states that it’s “not presently possible” to even engage in certain discussions.
“I applaud people for jumping into those things and fighting for what they believe in,” he stated. “If I were a political person, I would be talking about it. For me, my calling is elsewhere.”
Instead of activism, Powell is focused on his Hollywood career as both an actor and a screenwriter.
“I want to bring people together over a common thing,” the Great Beyond star said of his career goals. “I believe in what I’m making, and I do work really, really hard to try to make sure that it’s something that audiences want. It’s not an easy thing to care so much.”
While Powell finds joy in his film and TV projects, he has the complete support of his parents, his sisters and girlfriend Michelle Randolph.
“Life is fast for both of us, and we have the same values,” the Chad Powers actor gushed to the outlet of Randolph, 29. “She loves her family, I love my family and we both care about work a lot. We both like to show up for our partners — and yet we also understand the balance of it all.”
Powell and the Landman actress have been romantically linked since late last year before making their social media debut in June.
Glen Powell took bodybuilding to a camp level while posing for the cover of GQ. Powell, 36, embraced the extremes while appearing in GQ’s October “New Masculinity” issue, which was published digitally on Tuesday, September 9. While modeling for the publication, he wore an exaggerated muscle suit that gave him bulging biceps, thighs and calves. […]
“There’s something so lovely about someone rooting for you. Someone who wants you to win in all the ways that are good for you as a human,” Powell added in Wednesday’s profile. “Not just professionally but in all the ways that are good for your soul.”
Aside from Powell’s glowing Esquire comments, he and Randolph have preferred to keep their connection private.
“I think, for peace of mind, those are really important for me to keep separate,” Randolph told InStyle in January of her low-key romance. “How people perceive you publicly is not who you are. It’s hard to not [read the comments] because it’s so in our face, and everyone’s online, so you see things that you don’t necessarily want to, and then it puts you in a bad mood for the rest of the day or hurts your feelings. It’s not smart to let that define you because that’s not real.”
