Glen Powell stopped drinking alcohol during production of the streaming series Chad Powers to maintain his prosthetic makeup. The 36-year-old performer plays Russ Holliday, a disgraced college quarterback who adopts the Chad Powers disguise to return to football. Powell told People magazine that sweating from alcohol consumption would cause his facial prosthetics to detach.

The Top Gun: Maverick star said abstaining from beverages helped him stay fit for authentic football sequences against former professional players. Powell faced opponents weighing 350 pounds during filming. The actor noted he burned calories through practical football work rather than gym training.

Powell's character features a shaggy wig, artificial teeth, and facial hair. He acknowledged filming difficulties in Atlanta's heat because perspiration threatened his prosthetic stability. The performer said his face produces significant moisture when laughing, creating constant concerns about makeup failure during production.
