Adopting a dog can be a huge decision, and it's always helpful when you can rely on the advice of a friend to encourage you to take such an important step. That's what happened with Twisters co-stars Anthony Ramos and Glen Powell when Powell was considering becoming a dog dad.

Ramos, 32, and his dog, Prince, helped Powell, 35, decide to adopt Brisket the puppy, the In the Heights actor — who recently attended the New England Patriots vs. New York Jets watch party hosted by The Athletic for its Superstition Swap campaign — tells PEOPLE.

Glen Powell was influenced by his “Twisters” co-star Anthony Ramos to get a dog. The 35-year-old actor adopted an adorable puppy named Brisket in 2023. It is a Terrier Poodle mix dog. However, he initially did not have a pet dog when the filming of “Twisters” had begun.
