Not ready for comparison
Recently, he was compared to Ryan on X, formerly known as Twitter. An unnamed Hollywood producer described Glenn as Hollywood’s biggest rising movie star.
The unnamed producer spoke to The Wrap and said that Glenn is officially a movie star “in the sense that audiences now go to the movies to see him.” The producer added, “Unlike an actor like Ryan Gosling, whose appeal is mostly limited to a female audience, Glenn appeals to both women and men.”
He downplayed the compliment by jokingly deflecting it.
Glenn replied, “Gosling is a legend. I’m just Glenn.” This was a take on Ryan’s Barbie’s famous line, “I’m just Ken.” The reply garnered attention on the social media platform with over 100,000 likes and counting.
One user wrote, “I need you and Ryan Gosling to make a movie together,” while another added, “Your work is a whirlwind.”
“I get what you did, Glenn,” one user wrote, adding, “I have a crush on both Glenn and Ryan so I don’t know who wrote this article but they are wrong. We love them both. And they should be in a cop movie together.”

Next, Glenn has several anticipated projects, including Edgar Wright’s The Running Man and the comedy series Chad Powers.
