Glen Powell is "grateful" that Christopher Nolan "took a shot" by casting him in The Dark Knight Rises when he was a struggling actor

Glen Powell in The Dark Knight Rises.

Glen Powell has voiced his appreciation for Christopher Nolan and shared that he's grateful the director took a chance on him by casting him in The Dark Knight Rises during a difficult point in his career.

"I remember on Dark Knight Rises the feeling of being able to walk onto a set and you knew everybody in the world wanted to be on that set, right?" Powell told Vanity Fair. "Even though it was a small role, I auditioned several times for it. I was getting to work with the greatest director on the planet, Christopher Nolan. And you’re sitting there and all of a sudden Tom Hardy walks in as Bane. It’s electric. It’s sort of out-of-body."
