Glen Powell’s latest film Twisters is taking the theaters by storm as we speak—and so is his rescue dog Brisket. Despite not actually appearing in the film, he was by his side every step of the way during the promo tour and became somewhat of the film’s mascot.
Brisket appeared during countless red carpet events, photoshoots, and interviews alongside Powell in recent weeks, and that’s not a coincidence. He adopted him from the Labelle Foundation while filming Twisters and even took a weekend off filming to fly to LA and meet him.
It didn’t take long for Brisket to connect with the rest of the cast and crew, and his presence on set brought them closer together.
“There’s something wonderful about animals, about how they can bring our walls down a bit and expedite friendships and things like that. So yeah, Brisket’s been amazing. I consider him the best special feature of Twisters,” Powell told Entertainment Weekly.
Brisket became so popular that his absence from the actual film inspired many viral tweets people expected him to appear in Twisters. Powell even started a separate Instagram account for his rescue dog @hotbrisket, which quickly attracted over 60,000 followers.
