The hunt for Powell's doppelganger took place on Sunday, November 24, at 1 p.m. on Auditorium Shores near Lady Bird Lake, according to this flyer posted on Reddit- and the winner got a surprise from Powell himself!

The contest had two very qualified judges help choose the winner; Glen's aunt and mother. To make the grand prize even more special, Powell called in to the contest to add a cameo appearance in his next movie. But not for the winner himself; that prize goes to members of the winner's family. Why? Because Powell is known for putting members of his own family in cameo roles in his films, so...it makes sense.

Congratulations to the winner of the look-alike contest, physician’s assistant Maxwell Braunstein...or maybe we should be congratulating his family?

Actor Glen Powell is everywhere these days! After starring in a string of successful rom-coms, the Texas native doesn't seem to be slowing down anytime soon.

If you don't know who Glen Powell is, allow me to give you a brief rundown on the guy! Powell has been acting for over 20 years and is finally seeing his big break thanks to his roles in movies such as "Anyone But You", "Top Gun: Maverick" and most recently "The Hitman" on Netflix.

At the end of October, a Timothée Chalamet look-alike contest was held in Manhattan, where Chalamet actually showed up in the end! Most recently, there was a Jeremy Allen White look-alike contest in Chicago, where the winner won $50 and a pack of cigarettes.

Since then, a flood of celebrity look-alike contests have erupted; and now, obviously, the one question everyone has is: will Glen Powell show up to his look-alike contest like Chalamet did?

Even if Powell doesn't show up, the celebrity look-alike contests have been booming, and they look like such fun events! May the best Powell win!
