Queerguru's own cineaste has spotted  four new movies that are 
currently in production THAT WE CANNOT WAIT FOR :

30-year-old Irish Actor Barry Keoghan’s scene-stealing performance in The Banshees of Inisherin won him nominations for the Golden Globe and Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.  He is being lauded as a ‘new discovery, whereas in fact, he has appeared Trespass Against Us (2016) Christopher Nolan‘s Dunkirk (2017), and Y The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017), receiving an Independent Spirit Award nomination for the latter, Calm with Horses (2019), receiving a BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role nomination, and The Green Knight (2021).

Keoghan is now filming Saltburn a thriller about a British aristocratic family in which he plays  Jacob Elordi’s love interest  The film was written and directed by Academy Award winner Emerald Fennell, who’s best known for 2020’s Promising Young Woman. The cast also features Rosamund Pike, Richard E. Grant, Paul Rhys, Archie Madekwe, and Carey Mulligan, but will we even notice them?

The movie has just been test screened in Culver City and reactions were wildly positive according to www.worldofreel.com. They added “I don’t know how audiences will embrace this because there’s a lot of nudity and explicit scenes that will get them talking […] I hope these scenes don’t undermine other aspects of the film“

Openly gay actors Jonathan Bailey and Matt Bomer are filming Fellow Travellers: an eight-episode series about two civil servants in love during the anti-gay government purge of the “Lavender Scare.” in the early 1950s.  Bomer plays  Hawkins Fuller avoids emotional entanglements — until he meets Tim Laughlin (Bailey), a young man brimming with idealism and religious faith.

They start a romance that spans the Vietnam War protests of the 1960s, the drug-fueled disco hedonism of the 1970s, and the AIDS crisis of the 1980s, while facing obstacles in the world and in themselves.

Adapted from the historical novel of the same name by Thomas Mallon, the series is being filmed by  Academy Award Nominee Ron Nyswaner (Philadelphia) for Showtime Network.

Any new film from acclaimed Brit queer director Andrew Haigh (whose breakthrough was Weekend) is always something to get excited about.  Strangers adapted and directed by Haigh is loosely based on the award-winning novel of the same name by Japanese screenwriter and novelist Taichi Yamada.

Starring two of Ireland’s favorites, Normal People lead Paul Mescal and Fleabag‘s hot priest Andrew Scott, who play gay lovers who meet and start a sexual relationship two days before one of them plans to leave the country to attend art school.

Plus the movie also stars Emmy award-winning actor Claire Foy (The Crown), and BAFTA award-winning actor Jamie Bell (Rocketman).  Filming has finished,  but  no release date has been set so keep watching these pages

Brit actor Jaime Bell was a mere 14 years when he danced into our hearts in the title role of Billy Elliot in 1980  for which he won the BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, becoming one of the youngest winners of the award.   Since then Bell as starred in films as Tintin in The Adventures of Tintin (2011) and as Ben Grimm / Thing in Fantastic Four (2015). plus King Kong (2005), Jumper (2008), Snowpiercer (2013), and Rocketman (2019). He earned a second BAFTA Award nomination for his leading performance in Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool (2017).

Now he’s come full circle to dance again this time starring in Fred and Ginger a film biopic about Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. The film will focus on a “life-defining point in their early careers when their contrasting dance styles and intense rivalry threatened to destroy their partnership and carefully honed image forever.”

Bell’s co-star is Margaret Qualley and  the film is directed by Jonathan Entwistle, and choreographed by Christopher Wheeldon with a script by  Arash Amel
