    Glen Powell did NOT have a small role in TG:M. He made the perfect foil for Rooster AND had the character redemption role AND the hero who swoops in and helps Luke blow up the Death Star.

    There were 3 actors in that movie. Tom cruise, Miles Teller, and Glenn Powell. Tom cruise changed his life. Twice.

    "I auditioned for Rooster. Felt great about it." Someone said he looked good. He replied, "I am good." If Glen really wanted to impress, he would have taken the role of Bob.
