How Tom Hardy Accidentally Sent Glen Powell To The Medic On The Dark Knight Rises

Despite feeling dazed, Glen Powell remained as professional as possible and even okayed another shot at the scene from director Christopher Nolan. “I was like, ‘Oh s***, I don’t know if I have a concussion or what.'” Powell recalled. “Chris was like, ‘Can we do it again, just like that?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, yeah, we can do it again just like that.’ He was like, ‘I’m kidding! Go to the medic.'”

Considering Powell has since grown into something of a household name, it’s less likely that he’s going to have to deal with these types of mistakes in the future. After all, he’s more than a big enough star to earn himself a body double in his movies going forward. Still, that wasn’t the end of Powell’s challenges as an actor. 

In his more recent role as Hangman in “Top Gun: Maverick,” the performer had to contend with nausea, regularly throwing up as a result of the film’s high-flying sequences. “The fact that you wake up in the morning and know that at least a couple of you are going to puke, that’s a very galvanizing process,” he explained in the same Entertainment Weekly interview. Though stories like these are a reminder that life in show business isn’t all glitz and glamor, considering how far Powell has come since his smaller parts in earlier projects, he’d likely agree that his well-earned success is worth the hiccups he experienced along the way.
