Eli Manning's 'Chad Powers' Character to Be Subject of Hulu Comedy Series

Eli Manning's "Chad Powers" is getting his own comedy series.

Streaming giant Hulu has ordered a comedy series based on Manning's "Chad Powers" character seen in his EPSN+ docuseries "Eli's Places," according to Joe Otterson of Variety.

Glen Powell and Michael Waldron will produce the series alongside Eli and Peyton Manning and ESPN, among others.

"When bad behavior nukes hotshot QB Russ Holliday's (Powell) college career, he disguises himself and walks onto a struggling Southern football team as the talented, affable Chad Powers," the series description states.

Manning took the football world by storm in 2022 when he went undercover as Chad Powers at Penn State football tryouts to learn more about the walk-on process for college football.
