Today, Disney+ announced that the new, Hulu Original comedy series “Chad Powers” starring Glen Powell will premiere on Tuesday, September 30th with two episodes, exclusively on Disney+ (and Hulu in the US). New episodes stream weekly on Tuesdays.
Eight years after an unforgivable mistake nukes his promising college football career, hotshot quarterback Russ Holliday tries to resurrect his dreams by disguising himself as Chad Powers – a talented oddball who walks on to the struggling South Georgia Catfish.
“Chad Powers” is from co-creators and executive producers Glen Powell and Michael Waldron. Eli Manning serves as executive producer along with Omaha Productions’ Peyton Manning, Jamie Horowitz, Ben Brown and ESPN’s Burke Magnus, Brian Lockhart, Kati Fernandez. Waldron and Adam Fasullo are executive producing for Anomaly Pictures. Luvh Rakhe will executive produce and Tony Yacenda will serve as director and executive producer. The series stars Powell, who is also co-creating, co-writing and executive producing under his production co-banner Barnstorm Productions.
The series stars Glen Powell as “Russ Holliday/Chad Powers”, Perry Mattfeld as “Ricky”, Quentin Plair as “Coach Byrd”, Wynn Everett as “Tricia Yeager”, Frankie A. Rodriguez as “Danny” and Steve Zahn as “Coach Jake Hudson”.
