Billy Eichner and his raunchy ‘queer as hell’ rom com you are so going to love

 

If you’ve been unaware of how really hilariouly funny  Billy Eichner of the Emmy nominated Billy On The  Street Web Series is, then you are due for a very big surprise. He has co-written, produced, and is one of two male leads in BROS the first LGBTQ+ romantic comedy green-lit by a major studio. It’s a film about a film as it follows  Eichner as a podcast host hired by a studio to pen a gay romantic comedy.

Even better every major cast member in the film is LGBTQ+, including Luke Macfarlane, Amanda Bearse, Harvey Fierstein, Bowen Yang, Ts Madison, Symone, Miss Lawrence, Guillermo Diaz, and Guy Branum. Even the straight parts are portrayed by LGBTQ+ actors.

While he acknowledged the historic nature of the film, Eichner said that he also wanted Bros to be an “authentic, hilarious, and heartfelt film” about a single queer man navigating a relationship in today’s world. 

“This movie is a long time coming. But here we are,” Eichner said. “The era of Bros is upon us!”

 

Universal Pictures are releasing it in movie theaters 
on September 30th
