Nicholas Galitzine Opens Up About Gay Sex Scenes






Nicholas Galitzine is proving to be quite the royal heartthrob, charming us once again in the lavish corridors of historical drama. This time, he’s delving into the intricately woven tapestries of “Mary & George,” a Starz series that’s already causing a stir with its opulent storytelling and, oh, the scintillating scenes of seduction!

In “Mary & George,” Galitzine steps into the historically controversial shoes of George Villiers, the Duke of Buckingham, who’s as known for his political cunning as his intimate relations with King James I of England. And let me tell you, Galitzine is not shying away from the challenge. He recently shared with Entertainment Weekly how he navigated through a marathon of filming intimate scenes, all in a day’s work. His portrayal is not just about the physical but about embodying George’s journey to power and influence, using his sexuality as a formidable tool.

“There was one day where we did about four sex scenes in one day,” Galitzine tells EW.  “It’s an incredibly empowering feeling.”

But why the fascination with queer roles, you ask? Galitzine, a straight actor, has been candid about his choices, drawing from a deep respect and understanding of the LGBTQ+ community. His roles range from a closeted gay rugby player in “Handsome Devil” to the prince in “Red, White & Royal Blue,” and now, the enigmatic George in “Mary & George.” Each character offers a glimpse into the complexities of identity and the hidden vulnerabilities that come with it. For Galitzine, it’s about bringing authenticity and depth to stories that resonate on a personal level for many in the LGBTQ+ community .

“Mary & George” not only showcases Galitzine’s commitment to diverse storytelling but also marks his latest venture into royal roles, following his appearances as princes in “Cinderella” and “Red, White & Royal Blue.” It seems the crown suits him, and Hollywood can’t help but agree. Alongside Julianne Moore, who plays the scheming Countess of Buckingham, Galitzine navigates the perilous waters of the English court, where power plays and personal ambitions collide .

As “Mary & George” graces our screens, it’s clear that Galitzine’s star is only shining brighter. With a keen eye for complex characters and a heart firmly in tune with the stories that matter, he’s not just playing roles; he’s sparking conversations and perhaps, changing a few minds along the way. So, grab your popcorn and prepare for a royal rendezvous with Nicholas Galitzine in “Mary & George.” It’s history, but not as you know it!

Mary & George premieres on Starz on Friday, April 5.

Matt Bomer Talks About Gay Roles & Intimate Scenes






Matt Bomer, Hollywood’s gifted and unapologetically out gay leading man, has been quite busy lately. In an interview with Deadline, Bomer spoke eloquently about his life, his career, and his recent projects which include “Fellow Travelers,” a limited series, and “Maestro,” where he co-stars with Bradley Cooper and Carrie Mulligan.

There’s even buzz about a potential revival of the beloved show “White Collar.”

Bomer, who openly speaks about the importance of being a role model for the LGBTQ+ community, brought up his days as an up-and-coming actor in Hollywood.

He shared hilarious anecdotes about working on the set of Magic Mike and his greenness at the time. He also mentioned some behind-the-scenes tidbits, proving once again that just because you’re on a movie set doesn’t mean you know all the tricks of the trade!

“Fellow Travelers” and “Maestro” allowed Bomer to explore characters who have to navigate their identities and relationships in restrictive societal times.

“Fellow Travelers,” based on the book of the same name, drew him in immediately. This series broadens the scope of the book, taking us into the politically charged world of the ’50s to the AIDS crisis in the ’80s.

Bomer explained that every person involved with the project, from actors to costume designers, had a real personal investment in the story, and the specificity of the series demanded much of the cast emotionally.

For Bomer, the intimate scenes between his character and Jonathan Bailey’s, while demanding and intense, were crucial to portraying their relationship and navigating the societal challenges they faced.

He also delved into “Maestro,” where he plays David Oppenheim alongside Bradley Cooper’s Leonard Bernstein.

The difference between these characters, Oppenheim’s transparency and Maestro’s Rozenkrantz’s strictly private nature, created an interesting dynamic for him.

While his Sky’s the limit career is impressive, what we love about Matt Bomer is his unwavering support and standing within the LGBTQ+ community.

From losing 50 pounds to portray an AIDS victim in the Emmy-winning “The Normal Heart”, to his candid advocacy for gay rights and equal opportunities for LGBTQ+ actors, he’s proving that he’s not only an incredible talent but a proud gay icon that has our community’s back.

Will the rumors about a revival of “White Collar” prove to be true? We certainly hope so.

And will we get to see more of Bomer’s hot dance moves a la Magic Mike? Let’s keep our fingers crossed!

Regardless of what’s next, consider our calendars marked and our various streaming subscriptions renewed – we wouldn’t miss it for the world!
