Actor Glen Powell sent a video message to the participants of his look-alike contest on Sunday (Nov. 24, 2024) in his hometown, Austin, Texas, to tell them that the winner “gets a personal prize from me.”

“You may know that my parents make a cameo in every movie I make, but today, the winner of the Glen Powell look-alike contest wins their parents or any family member of their choice a cameo in my next movie,” Powell said in the video. “I am completely serious. This is a cash value prize of $6 billion.”

“Enjoy my favorite city in the world,” he continued. “Keep Austin weird. Hook 'em horns and see you around every time I look in the mirror.”

Powell's mom served as judge and crowned Maxwell Braunstein, an Austin-based physician's assistant who channeled Powell's iconic Top Gun: Maverick role as Lt. Jake “Hangman” Seresin. His prize package included a $5 bill, unlimited queso from Torchy's Tacos for 12 months, and a sweet cowboy hat.
