Bros has elsewhere been touted as the first gay Hollywood romcom from a major studio — despite coming out more than a quarter of a century after the 1996 classic The Birdcage starring Nathan Lane and Robin Williams.
The opposites draw comedy with Eichner as a bookish workaholic who runs a museum and finds himself falling for a jock-type played by Luke Macfarlane.
Both protagonists are over 40, which fits in with Eichner’s idea of developing a gay film that was not aimed at young adults.
“Most LGBTQ content today is about gay teens presented in a very sitcom-like way. We wear cute little outfits and we’re here to be charming. I have no relation. Where are the adults?’ he told Variety.
“I watch this queer programming and I don’t know who these gay men are. They don’t look, sound or act like me or my gay friends.’
During his meeting 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 a straight actor never being allowed to play gay. But we need a more level playing field. It’s about correcting a very extreme imbalance.’
Bros hits theaters on Friday, September 30.
