Netflix drops first trailer for Neil Patrick Harris’ LGBTQ+ dramedy Uncoupled
Netflix has released the first trailer for Neil Patrick Harris’ new gay dramedy, Uncoupled. Over the last few of years, LGBTQ+ viewers have flocked to Netflix to immerse themselves in its queer-led shows.
From Elite and Heartstopper to First Kill and Young Royals, Netflix has steadily increased its catalogue of LGBTQ+ content. On 13 July, the streamer dropped another trailer for its brand new queer series Uncoupled, which is set to star Harris as a newly single gay man Michael Lawson.
Described as a “successful New York City real estate agent with a great career, a supportive family, close friends”, Michael’s life suddenly gets turned upside down after Colin (Tuk Watkins), his partner of 17 years, leaves him on the eve of his 50th birthday. “Overnight, he has to confront two nightmares: losing the man he thought was his soulmate and suddenly finding himself a single gay man in his mid-forties in New York City,” the synopsis reads.
At the beginning of the trailer, Michael endures the aftermath of his disastrous breakup. “Do you have any idea what it’s like to be single again for a gay man at my age?” he exclaims.
