Actor Glen Powell has certainly made a name for himself over the last few years. He’s charmed audiences with his portrayal of Lieutenant Jake "Hangman" Seresin in 2022’s “Top Gun: Maverick,” Ben in 2023 hit romcom, “Anything But You,” and most recently, Gary Johnson in “Hitman.”

Throughout the promotional tour for “Hitman,” available to stream on Netflix, Powell decided to bring along a very special someone — his beloved rescue dog, Brisket.

For instance, Powell and his canine companion appeared on the June 10 episode of the “Drew Barrymore Show.” During the interview, Powell opened up about his decision to adopt Brisket, who he calls his “son.”

He explained that he decided that he wanted to become a pup parent while shooting the upcoming film, “Twisters” in Oklahoma.

“I was feeling like I needed to be a dad as soon as possible. So Brisket was the solution,” said Powell.

He also shared that he adopted the very good boy from The LaBelle Foundation, located in Los Angeles. In addition, he stated that his furry friend was taken in by the rescue around the fourth of July. The 35-year-old suggested his beloved dog was at risk of being put down.

“It’s kind of terrible. But before July 4th, you know, because a lot of dogs run away, with the fireworks, he was probably one of those crew that would be put down. So, we got Brisket just in time,” said Powell.
