Legends play legends! (GIF via GIPHY) File this under the best news you've heard all day: Billy Eichner will develop and star in Man in the Box, the life story of the troubled actor Paul Lynde.
The life of the TV party, Lynde was a glass-closeted gay who for many of us was the first hint of what a queer man could be.
His story is compelling, as were his relatable neuroses. The people I know who knew him rave about his ability to be funny while reminding me that he could also go dark and become morose and embittered.
Sounds like a good movie to me. In his Deadline interview, Eichner notes: There is no gay Tom Hanks in this country. There is no gay Will Ferrell.

press release described her as “a leading authority in international development policy with over 30 years of experience in the multi-disciplinary field that includes finance, technology, and the environment.”Wong has said she was inspired by the late Congressman John Lewis, a longtime civil rights leader. Lewis, she wrote in a Facebook post last year, “taught me about making good trouble but necessary trouble.” She accompanied Lewis on his annual visits to Selma, Ala., where he was beaten by police during a 1965 voting rights demonstration, and videotaped his appearances.Wong is founder of the Conference on APA Leadership, which encourages young Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders to pursue careers in public service. The LGBTQ Victory Institute, which advocated for Wong’s nomination and confirmation, issued a laudatory statement Tuesday.
