Wish’s Harvey Guillén Shares Hopes For A Queer Disney Princess, And I Totally Agree

Disney’s Wish was a movie that, in its structure and numerous easter eggs, was designed to celebrate 100 years of Disney’s animation. While Disney has certainly evolved over the decades, one thing that fans have wanted to see, that has yet to materialize is a queer Disney Princess, but one member of the Wish cast thinks that’s something that we could see see, and sooner than we might think.Harvey Guillén of What We Do In The Shadows plays Gabo in Wish and speaking with ComicBook.com, he expressed interest in seeing a…

Ethan Coen’s Queer Buddy Comedy Is a Car-Wreck

A road trip. A mix-up. A fast-talking hero, prone to tossing off bewilderingly verbose sentences. Some criminals who run the gamut from eccentric to psychotic to painfully inept. (Sometimes, they’re all three at once.) Dangerously sudden violence. Dangerously dark humor. Dangerously outrageous hairdos. The feeling that you’re watching a vintage film noir story run through a Looney Tunes filter. You are in the presence of a Coen brothers movie — whaddaya need, a road map?! Actually, some sort of GPS system would be…

Movie Review: Buckle up for a queer road trip caper in Ethan Coen’s spry ‘Drive-Away Dolls’ | Hollywood

“Drive-Away Dolls” is, technically speaking, made up of old parts. HT Image Its script was written two decades ago, when references to Ralph Nader and Chelsea Clinton’s security detail were current. Its homages are even more vintage, with trippy transitions harkening back to the acid-soaked B-movies of the 1960s. There’s a mysterious, sought-after briefcase, odd couple thugs on the hunt for it and some innocents who find themselves unwittingly entangled in the drama. It is all very familiar, and yet, in the…

Ethan Coen and Tricia Cooke give sexploitation cinema a queer spin in ‘Drive-Away Dolls’ | Hollywood

NEW YORK (AP) — Scripts of all kinds sit in the drawers of Ethan Coen’s home, some to be returned to, some forever abandoned. When writing with his brother Joel over many years, the absurd narrative paths they’d venture down would inevitably lead to strange mental roadblocks. HT Image “Sometimes partial scripts would stop in mysterious places,” Coen says. “‘Fargo’ we started writing many, many years before we made it and then we stopped at page 70 with ‘Carl is humping the escort.’ Then the rest of that page is…

‘We Can’t Keep Doing That Thing Where We Tell Everyone How To Feel’: Kristen Stewart Gets Real About The Future Of Queer Storytelling In…

When movie and TV lovers think of queer icons, it’s likely that Kristen Stewart is one of the many stars who comes to mind. For years now, she’s supported and starred in fare that centers on people and themes that don’t conform to heterosexual norms. She’s most recently done that with her latest film, Love Lies Bleeding – an upcoming A24 production. Many would argue that the movie and others represent the progress that’s being made within Hollywood in regard to telling LGBTQ+ stories. However, while opening up about the…

Serpentwithfeet: Grip review – glossy, lustful tribute to queer black clubland | Dance music

This isn’t Josiah Wise’s coming out album. Almost everything the American with stunning Christian-choir vocals has recorded as Serpentwithfeet is stamped with the desire lines of queer love. Yet Grip is far more lascivious and uninhibited than 2021’s love-fuddled Deacon, with a glossy, clubby feel that’s bounds away from the unearthly, recherché goth-gospel pioneered on his debut, Soil. The extroversion is because Grip soundtracks Heart of Brick, Wise’s 2023 theatre production depicting black gay nightclubs – the lands…

Review: The Sea Elephants by Shastri Akella

Shastri Akella’s debut novel is a tumultuous account of the India of the 1980s and 1990s, when homosexuality was punishable by a 10-year prison term. At the centre of the story is 16-year-old Shagun Mathur, who has lost his best friends – his identical twin sisters, Mud and Milk, and his long-absent father, who has returned from London six months after the twins drowned in the Bay of Bengal. The elephant in the pool (Shutterstock) 371pp, ₹599; Penguin Shagun is still trying to process the grief of Mud and…

Kim Petras review – gothic chaos meets pop fantasy in a queer Eras tour | Kim Petras

It should be surprising to hear Kim Petras’s worldwide No 1 Unholy only a few songs into her set tonight, but it speaks to the German-born, LA-based pop star’s particular brand of stardom. Her 2022 hit with Sam Smith may have brought her mainstream success – and made her the first out trans artist to win in a major category at the Grammys – but her dedicated, largely queer fanbase have been eating up her bratty dance-pop since her debut in 2017. Put plainly, there aren’t many casuals waiting to hear the hits…

Queer: The Cast And Other Things We Know About The Next Luca Guadagnino Movie

Luca Guadagnino’s new movie, Queer, is coming soon – and this is what we know so far about it. When it comes to Luca Guadagnino, I could point to plenty of films he has worked on or directed that readers would recognize. Probably one of his most famous is Call Me By Your Name, which starred Timothée Chalamet and shot the French-American actor into stardom, so much so that he’s in plenty of blockbusters now, like the upcoming Dune 2 or the box-office hit, Wonka. But Guadagnino has also done plenty of other famously…
