Bros director Nicholas Stoller has opened up about making a potential sequel to the hit film.

Billy Eichner, the gay comedian, is usually the one asking the questions. Eichner came to fame with his award-winning, 2011-2017 truTVshow, “Billy On The Street,” where he would accost strangers on the streets of Manhattan, often with an A-list celebrity at his side. Eichner would interrupt someone in the middle of a jog, an errand, or daily commute, to ask a groan-inducing question or play a silly game. Most New Yorkers did not recognize either Eichner or celebrity sidekicks like Chris Evans, Will Ferrell, Mariah Carey, or Sarah Jessica Parker.

Billy Eichner‘s Bros is, first and foremost, a big, raunchy, hilarious gay rom-com. But it’s also got a lot on its mind, including—oh, you know—the entire history of queerness and the hundreds of thousands of people who paved the way so that a movie like this could exist.Some of Bros‘ funniest scenes find Eichner’s Bobby Lieber contending with this massive legacy as he and a panel of board members quibble over the exhibits for the grand opening of the (unfortunately fictional) LGBTQIA+ Museum in New York City.

The gay romantic comedy Bros, the first such film to be backed by a major studio, will not be released in the Middle East.“It’s still unclear exactly what markets in the region will be affected, but it’s likely to include Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Kuwait — all of which are notorious for censoring movies over even the slightest hint of LGBTQ themes or content,” according to Variety, which was the first to report the story.LGBTQ-inclusive films that have been banned in the region include Onward and the recent release Lightyear — both of which have queer characters. Marvel's The Eternals was banned in some countries in the region for showing the studio's first same-gender couple. Other films have had affectionate same-sex scenes cut for the market.Bros tells the story of two New Yorkers, played by Billy Eichner and Luke Macfarlane, beginning a romance.

Billy Eichner is back with a new Billy on the Street to promote his movie Bros with help from Paul Rudd and, as Eichner says, “a pack of wild lesbians.”Eichner stops various New Yorkers in hopes of extracting a promise to see the gay rom-com, which opens September 30. All the main roles are played by LGBTQ+ actors.In the video, the first edition of Billy on the Street in three years, Eichner seeks to persuade passersby to tell “famous and beloved straight man” Rudd that they’ll go to the film. The pair — and the “wild lesbians” joining Eichner in the latter part of the segment — have varying degrees of success.One man appears put off when Eichner tells him there’s a lot of gay sex in the movie.

Actor-writer Billy Eichner used Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards to make a political statement, calling out homophobes who want to take away marriage equality and other rights.Eichner, introducing Panic! at the Disco, mentioned Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas’s expressed wish to overturn the 2015 ruling that established marriage equality nationwide. Thomas made the statement in his concurring opinion in the June ruling that reversed Roe v.

Bros has finally arrived and it's been worth the wait. Bros is the first LGBTQ+ romantic comedy green-lit by a major studio. Eichner co-wrote, produced, and is one of two male leads in the Universal Pictures film.
