Glen Powell is busy promoting his new movie Twisters, and he’s not the one stealing the spotlight this time around. His dog Brisket has been by his side every step of the way, and he became a true Instagram sensation after joining him for red carpet events and photoshoots.
Brisket is an adorable rescue dog that Powell adopted from the Labelle Foundation while he was in the middle of shooting Twisters. It wasn’t the best time to start taking care of a new pet, but he was going through a tough breakup and felt a sudden desire to have someone to take care of.
He came across a photo of Brisket on Instagram and took a weekend off filming to fly to Los Angeles and pick him up. Brisket quickly became a huge star on the Twisters set, bringing a lot of joy to everyone around him.
“Sets can be very lonely places. And it’s interesting when you see a dog that’s just filling you up with love, how it brings a cast together even more. There’s something wonderful about animals, about how they can bring our walls down a bit and expedite friendships,” he told Entrainment Weekly.
Brisket’s photos immediately go viral every time Powell shares them on his Instagram page, and he even appeared by his owner’s side during a recent Entrainment Weekly photoshoot.
