Is 'Chad Powers' Season 3 Happening? Glen Powell's Hulu Hit Reaches a Crossroads

Glen Powell completely won over TV audiences with his prosthetic-heavy transformation in *Chad Powers*, the hilarious sports comedy he co-created with writer Michael Waldron. The series follows disgraced college star quarterback Russ Holliday, who takes extreme measures to resurrect his athletic reputation. After torching his career during a high-stakes championship game, he constructs an entirely new alter-ego—complete with fake facial features—to secure a roster spot on a struggling squad. Alongside Powell’s lead role, the comedy features a talented ensemble cast that includes Steve Zahn, Perry Mattfeld, Quentin Plair, Wynn Everett, Frankie Rodriguez, and Toby Huss. After first tackling the streaming world in September 2025, the series earned a quick follow-up, setting up a second season landing September 3, 2026.

Is Chad Powers renewed for season 3 on Hulu Streamers have not officially pulled the trigger on a third season quite yet. Hulu is currently staying quiet on whether *Chad Powers* will secure another renewal, likely waiting to analyze early viewership numbers for the second batch of episodes. With season two hitting Disney+ globally alongside its US Hulu premiere, executive producers will be keeping a close eye on completion rates and social media traction over the coming weeks before making a formal announcement.

BUZZBEAT

What are Glen Powell's upcoming movies Even if Hulu gives the green light, the biggest obstacle standing in the way of a third season might be Glen Powell’s ridiculously stacked Hollywood calendar. The actor has swiftly become one of the most sought-after stars in the business, locking down major feature films that could delay production. Powell is already booked solid for several major projects, including Judd Apatow’s upcoming comedy *The Comeback King*. On top of that, he is slated to star in J.J. Abrams’ highly anticipated film *The Great Beyond*. Finding room between blockbuster movie shoots to put on those heavy facial prosthetics again could require some serious scheduling magic. For now, fans will just have to binge the newest batch of episodes and hope Powell can find a gap in his busy calendar to bring Russ Holliday back to the field once more.
