Betty Boop’s story is set for a big-screen adaptation, framed as a timeless queer icon with a butch queen partner. Colman Domingo appears as a “Cover Daddy” for Men’s Health, sharing how his family reacted when he came out in the early 1990s. Four Itchy Boys is a queer body horror short about four young men quarantined by an inexplicable itch. Jordan Firstman’s directorial debut Club Kid gained strong Cannes attention and sold to A24 after a bidding war. Hafsia Herzi’s The Little Sister, winner of the Queer Palm, is headed to U.S. theaters. Kylie Minogue’s Netflix docu-series credits William Baker for shaping her image, and Brazilian tennis player Joao Lucas Reis da Silva became the first openly gay male pro actively playing in 2024.
"Betty Boop is a timeless queer icon, and now her story's coming to the big screen from the mind of Abbott Elementary's Quinta Brunson who-need we remind you-is a total ally because people be gay."
"Colman Domingo is the latest "Cover Daddy" for Men's Health, with the 56-year-old star showing off his bangin' bod in a new photoshoot while baring even more in the accompanying interview, opening up about how his family reacted when he came out to them in the early '90s."
"Queer body horror short Four Itchy Boys has an intriguing title & an even more intriguing premise following a quartet of young men (including Nico Greetham & Gilberto Ortiz) quarantined due to an inexplicable itch, which we have to imagine is a metaphor for... something!"
"Meanwhile, the winner of the Queer Palm award at last year's Cannes is finally coming to U.S. theaters: French-Algerian filmmaker Hafsia Herzi's The Little Sister is a fantastic coming-of-age tale about a young Muslim woman (Nadia Melliti) navigating her burgeoning sexuality after moving to Paris."
