Hulu’s ‘Chad Powers’ Sets September Premiere Date

Hulu’s new comedy series 'Chad Powers,' co-created by Glen Powell and Michael Waldron, will premiere with two episodes on September 30, 2025, followed by weekly episodes every Tuesday. The half-hour show stars Powell as Russ Holliday, a disgraced college quarterback who tries to restart his career by disguising himself as Chad Powers to join a struggling Southern football team. The series is inspired by Eli Manning’s viral undercover walk-on sketch for ESPN+’s Eli’s Places. Powell and Waldron co-wrote the pilot, with Eli and Peyton Manning among the executive producers. The cast features Perry Mattfeld, Quentin Plair, Wynn Everett, Frankie A. Rodriguez, and Steve Zahn. The show is produced by 20th Television, Omaha Productions, Anomaly Pictures, and Barnstorm Productions, and its launch was announced during Hulu's 2025 upfront presentation in New York.
