Bros has been touted elsewhere as the first gay Hollywood romcom from a major studio – despite coming out more than a quarter-century after the 1996 classic The Birdcage starring Nathan Lane and Robin Williams.
The opposites-attract comedy stars Eichner as a bookish workaholic who runs a museum and finds himself falling for a jock type played by Luke Macfarlane.
Both the lead actors are over 40, fitting into Eichner’s idea of developing a gay movie that was not centered on young adults.
‘Most of the LGBTQ content today is about gay teenagers who are presented in a very sitcom-ish fashion. We’re wearing cutesy little outfits, and we’re there to be charming. I don’t relate. Where are the adults?’ he told Variety.
‘I look at this queer programming, and I don’t know who these gay men are. They don’t look, sound or behave like me and my gay friends.’
During his sit-down with the outlet, Eichner also defended his decision to have an all-queer cast even for straight roles in the rom-com.
‘It’s not about saying a straight actor should never play gay. But we need a more equal playing field. It’s about correcting a very extreme imbalance.’
Bros hits theaters on Friday, September 30.
