Queer Mexican filmmaker Jorge Xolalpa‘s new six part TV series STRANGELOVE is evidently based on his own life. Set in LA it depicts the intersecting lives and loves of a group of four gay friends in the city with all sorts of adventures, from the hilarious to the dramatic to the downright sexy.
We have only seen the trailer (below) but the producers have promised us that the series doesn’t hold back when it comes to depicting the complicated sex lives of these guys either, going for a bold realism that feels like a rarity in this era of streaming for global audiences. To add to our curiosity (!) Xolalpa is also in the cast as is Alexis Vazquez who also happens to be Xolalpa’s real-life husband,
You will not have wait to see long to see for yourselves as Strangelove will kick off National Hispanic Heritage Month with a world premiere at Hollywood’s historic TCL Chinese Theaters on September 12, and then will begin streaming September 19 on Prime Video in the U.S., on YouTube in Puerto Rico and Central & Latin America, and on Vimeo in the rest of the world.
There has been a suggestion made that this could be a Latin ‘Sex In The City’ BUT we will reserve our judgement until we see a great deal more
