@tylekurner Spontaneous thoughts: Ben Whishaw, Colman Domingo, Ian McKellen. Also pretty great: Godehard Giese, but he's only ever been in German films.

Who is the best gay male film actor ?

@DavidOpie Right?!

Wish I was his big mistake 😞

@AwardsWatchErik I'm so sad they broke up...

Javier Calvo & Javier Ambrossi are the first Drag Race judges to have a film in competition at Cannes

I wrote about The Drama, The Testaments, Imperfect Women and deracialized portrayals in today's anti-DEI era in my latest for @opinion bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Oh!

❤️Julio Torres ❤️

@trashmatsuit Oh, he’s so cute and hot and talented. Make sure you watch him in LAYLA. Wonderful film. But also loved him in Extraordinary, Dead Hot, The Agency or Slow Horses. And he’s now in Richard Gadd’s Half Man as well.

I haven't started Good Omens but I just googled Bilal Hasna and like... in the interest of not saying something feral I'm just gonna drop the pics and go, because who gave someone the right to be this hot 😐🫣

@Damiansport1 @BorisBastide Has Pedro ever not competed? And everything I’ve been hearing from inside MUBI makes me think that Schoenbrun will (sadly) not be in competition. But would love to be wrong.

Cannes competition predictions! Giving my best shot 7 days before the Press conference. Almodovar will be there, its just uncertain whether he will compete. THe French selection is the most mysterious, want Dumont and Mandico, but going with more realistic choices. #Cannes2026

@zoneofcarlos 😅😅

CLAMS?? 💀

@DavidOpie @digitalspy Oh no. Not that I had terribly high hopes for this show. But still.

Is this hot? Yes. Do the scenes that follow feed into some horrifically outdated tropes? Abso-fucking-lutely. #DetectiveHole is misogynistic, homophobic trash that feels like it was made in 2006, not 2026. Wrote more on that @digitalspy 👇🏻 digitalspy.com/tv/a70791090/j…

When you’re watching a 2000s tv show because one of the main actor’s got gay rumors around them that turn out to be true.

Lisa Kudrow wird verehrt für ihre Rolle als Phoebe in „Friends“. Aber als Valerie Cherish ist sie genau so einzigartig und unvergesslich. Jetzt feiert sie in „The Comeback“ ein weiteres fantastisches Comeback – cringe, lustig und sogar existenziell: sueddeutsche.de/medien/the-com… (€)

@niggi Ich war am Ende gar nicht unfroh, dass von mir doch niemand einen Text haben wollte. Genau aus dem Grund.

@patrickheidmann Danke schön! Ich fand's gar nicht so leicht, sie zu erklären.

„Jahrelang ist nichts passiert und ich hab das Gefühl, jetzt waren alle total überrascht, als Grok kam und alle Frauen ausgezogen hat. Wir brauchen eine gute Gesetzeslage um dagegen vorgehen zu können, und das haben wir in Deutschland nicht.“ Collien Fernandes

🍃 In a bucolic forest, a naked man walks among the trees. The image by Alain Guiraudie, poised between desire and reverie, turns nature into a territory of fiction. The poster for the 58th edition of the Directors’ Fortnight invites us to lose ourselves in mysterious woods.

@DavidCRooney1 Would watch!

THE BRIDE 2!

At a party the night before the Oscars, I spoke to a well-connected insider who predicted Michael B. Jordan would win. “It’s what the industry wants,” he said simply. “And it’s good for the industry.” I dissected how Jordan won as Chalamet faded: nytimes.com/2026/03/16/mov…
