Showtime’s upcoming miniseries, Fellow Travelers, starring Jonathan Bailey and Matt Bomer as the romantic leads, is already bringing the heat.

Bailey, 34, and Bomer, 44, were pictured showcasing their svelte physiques as they exchanged a sweet smooch in the water while filming a scene for the series in Canada.

The actors will play on-screen lovers in the LGBTQ romance-thriller based off of the novel of the same name by Thomas Mallon.

Shooting scenes on Lake Ontario, Matt and Jonathan looked every bit the smitten couple as they wrestled in the splashing waves.

Bailey put his ample muscles on display in a pair of blue swim trunks as Bomber held his face and planted a kiss on his lips. 

The Bridgerton has transformed himself from his Regency Era former character and is sporting a retro mustache and long hair.

While on dry land, Bailey was costumed in a thin plaid beach shirt with his bathing suit. 

He got drenched and slipped out of the wet top after Bomer’s character tossed him into the water.

Not to be outdone, Matt Bomer also strutted his stuff, flaunting his own impressive muscles in a pair of small green shorts. 

The attractive on-screen lovers certainly got a workout while shooting. They took turns running in the sand, jumping, picking each other up and jumping in the Great Lake.

At one point, Bailey even put his gymnastics skills to the test and performed a cartwheel.  

In Fellow Travelers, Bailey will portray Fordham University graduate Tim Laughlin, who enters a volatile romance with Matt’s character Hawkins Fuller in 1950s Washington D.C. 

The pair – portrayed by two gay-identifying actors – will continue to cross paths over the following 40 years, with monumental timepoints including the 1960s Vietnam War, 1970s disco era and the 1980s AIDS crisis.

In the lakeside scene, the costumes appear to be from sometime in the 1970s. 

Allison Williams will also star as Lucy Smith in the production which began shooting in Toronto in July.

Matt, 44, publicly announced he was gay in 2012, and has gone on to welcome three children with his husband Simon Halls.

Jonathan is thought to be dating fellow actor, James Ellis, following a string of appearances together – however the pair haven’t spoken publicly about the rumors.

It comes after Matt admitted that coming out to his family eighteen years ago had been much more difficult, and hinted the relationship with his mother and father was still strained as a result.

Speaking to MR PORTER, the actor confessed his parents had been shocked to hear he was gay, due to their religious beliefs – and revealed he now sees his grandmother as a true ‘loving and accepting Christian’, as she gave ‘zero f****s’ about his sexuality. 

Matt married his publicist partner Simon in 2011, one year before he confirmed to the public he was gay at the Steve Chase Humanitarian Awards.

However the Magic Mike star explained he first came out to his brother at the age of 24, after pretending he was straight during his youth, in the ‘Bible Belt’ of Texas.

Telling his parents two years later, Matt admitted he was surprised at how shocked were – and that it was actually his grandparents who accepted him straight away.

He said: ‘You know who was coolest about it? My grandparents. They gave zero f****.

Before adding, in a seemingly subtle dig at the rest of his family: ‘My grandma blows my mind. To me, she exemplifies what a loving, accepting Christian is.’

He went on to explain that his religious parents did not speak about his sexuality for six months after he came out, culminating in a huge row when he returned home from college – which he hinted has still not been fully resolved.

When asked if thirteen years later, he was now on good terms with his parents, he revealed: ‘I’ll just say yes.

‘When you’re a family, you just table [put to one side] certain things in order to get to the business of loving each other. I feel very, very thankful to have the family that I do.’
