Glen Powell is one of the fastest-rising actors in Hollywood ever since his breakthrough role in Twisters.

Check out our guide below to find out where to watch Glen Powell’s best movies on streaming platforms like Disney+, and more!

The film that boosted Glen Powell’s career is also one of his best movies: Top Gun: Maverick. Not only does Powell shine as Lieutenant Jake "Hangman" Seresin, who strongly parallels a young Maverick Mitchell (Tom Cruise), but the movie also sures the original with its stronger storyline and breathtaking aerial cinematography.

Since then, Glen Powell has proven he’s a leading man with Sydney Sweeney mesmerize viewers as Ben and Bea, a couple whose electric connection with one another sours. Despite their ill feelings towards one another, they’re forced to vacation together in Sydney, Australia, to their friends’ marriage. The film was a box office hit due to its raunchy rom-com premise and the palpable chemistry between Powell and Sweeney.

Meanwhile, in Hit Man, Glen Powell portrays Gary Johnson, who poses as a hitman to catch those conspiring to commit murders. He truly shows his acting prowess by taking on numerous identities, accents, personalities, and disguises for the film. Although Anyone but You and Hit Man received the most fanfare, Powell also recently starred in the highly-rated The Blue Angels.

However, not all of Glen Powell’s best movies are new. One of his best pre-Top Gun: Maverick films is the 2018 rom-com Set It Up. In this movie, Powell takes on the role of matchmaker Charlie Young, who conspires with Harper Moore (Zoey Deutch) to set their bosses up so they can get some much-needed time off. Once again, Powell's chemistry with his co-star is wonderful, and the movie is a lighthearted and enjoyable rom-com.

Powell also has a small role in the powerful biographical movie Hidden Figures, which highlights the contributions of three incredible women who helped win the space race.
