Glen Powell’s red carpet moment at the 2026 Golden Globes
Glen Powell arrived at the 2026 Golden Globes in a midnight-blue tux by Brunello Cucinelli, turning heads with a velvet blazer, cummerbund and retro sunglasses. Photographers captured the actor’s polished but relaxed menswear look as he celebrated a new nomination — this time for television.
A second consecutive Golden Globes nomination
Powell is nominated for Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Television Series—Musical or Comedy for his lead role in Hulu’s Chad Powers. It marks his second year in a row as a Globe nominee: in 2025 he earned a Best Actor nomination for the film Hit Man.
What Powell is being recognized for: Chad Powers
Chad Powers follows an overconfident college quarterback whose viral end zone moment sets off a public fall and later a staged comeback as a walk-on player. Powell co-wrote, executive produced and stars in the series, which has already been renewed for a second season on Hulu. The show was loosely inspired by a viral sketch from Eli Manning’s Eli’s Places on ESPN+.
Powell has been candid about his approach to work and performance. He told Vanity Fair that while he doesn’t always view himself as the most naturally talented, he makes up for it by outworking everyone around him. On the creative front he told GQ that Chad Powers explores modern masculinity and a character who refuses to take accountability, doubling down instead of apologizing.
The look: Brunello Cucinelli details
The midnight-blue suit stood out from traditional black-tie choices. Powell’s tux paired a velvet blazer with a classic cummerbund and the Brunello Cucinelli label’s refined tailoring. His sunglasses — reported as the BC3007 lenses — added a retro edge to the ensemble, balancing old-school menswear with contemporary polish.
Why this matters
Powell’s presence at the Globes underscores his crossover from film to television and his growing clout as a creative force who writes and produces his own projects. The renewed interest in Chad Powers and consecutive nominations point to a sustained moment for the actor — both as a performer and a public style figure on red carpets.
Whether you’re tracking award-season contenders or menswear trends, Powell’s 2026 Golden Globes appearance delivered a notable blend of career momentum and sartorial confidence.
