Fire Island star Joel Kim Booster revealed the deleted scenes he wished made the final cut. On 3 June, Hulu released the Pride and Prejudice-inspired rom-com to universal critical acclaim.
The queer-inclusive project follows two best friends (Booster and Bowen Yang) as they embark on their annual weeklong vacation to the titular gay hotspot.
Fire Island, also written by Booster, has been lauded for its rejection of harmful queer trauma tropes and for its celebration and glorification of LGBTQ+ culture (and Marisa Tomei’s Academy Award-winning role in My Cousin Vinny, of course).
With the film continuing to make its rounds during Pride Month, Booster opened up to Out about the scenes he wished made the final cut.
