Glen Powell may not have been at the 2024 Golden Globes, but he still managed to get snapped on the red carpet.

At least he did according to a X/Twitter post from The Hollywood Reporter, who accidentally mixed up Anyone But You star with This Is Us star Justin Hartley. "Glen Powell has arrived for tonight's 2024 #GoldenGlobes ceremony," posted the outlet, above a photo of Hartley, not Powell, standing on the red carpet.

As you can imagine, there were plenty of people on X who quickly pointed out the mistake. And one of them was Powell himself.

"I think this is the perfect time to announce that ⁦@justinhartley and I will be starring in the most boring body-swap movie of all time," Powell joked.

Sensing a hit in the making, Patrick Schwarzenegger even threw his hat in the ring, too.

Glen Powell's X/Twitter game continues to be strong going into the new year. Meanwhile, Nathan Fielder, you're up.
