deadline.comRussell T Davies, the creator of Channel 4 and HBO Max’s upcoming AIDS crisis series It’s A Sin, has spoken out about the importance of casting gay actors as gay characters.Starring Years & Years frontman Olly Alexander, the series is already winning rave reviews and, during a publicity blitz ahead of its January 22 premiere in the UK, Davies made his feelings known about preserving authenticity on screen.The A Very English Scandal writer told the Radio Times: “I’m not being woke about this… but I feel strongly that if I cast someone in a story, I am casting them to act as a lover, or an enemy, or someone on drugs or a criminal or a saint… they are not there to ‘act gay’ because ‘acting gay’ is a bunch of codes for a performance.
