Ringler, Copes & Rose (Images by Justin Clynes, Mark J. Franklin & David Hull) A new LGBTQIA+ series is set to begin shooting in NYC next month — The Struggle, created by Alex Ringler (who you saw a lot of in Broadways's West Side Story, and even more of in Bros).
Ringler will star with DeMarius Copes (Dear Evan Hansen) and Darius Rose (yes, bitch, Jackie Cox of RDR fame). From a press release: Three roommates, Patrick, Rez, and Colt have their lives thrown into disarray when Colt’s live-in girlfriend breaks up with him and takes her share of the rent with her.
Will Patrick, the guy with silver-spoon privilege flowing out of his pores actually have to enter the workforce for once? Will Rez, the server/actor have to take another job moonlighting at a secret location as a secret alter-ego?
Will Colt find love again, or just a roommate that doesn’t want to jump his bones? Therein lies The Struggle. At its heart, The Struggle is a comedy about the unlikely friendships and the fun (and not so fun) realities of roommate living in New York.
