Bros (2022)
Nominated for Best Comedy Movie at the 2023 Critics Choice Awards, Bros marks the first romantic comedy from a major studio about two gay men maybe, possibly, probably, stumbling towards love. Maybe. They're both very busy.
Bros won the 2023 GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Wide Release Film, and was nominated for three Queerties and the GALECA Dorian Award for LGBTQ Film of the Year. It has an 89% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Newsday calling it, “A gay cinematic landmark that also happens to be a very smart and funny rom-com,” and Empire Magazine saying, “Hilarious from start to finish, with two excellent leading men and dollops of queer joy sprinkled throughout, Bros hits classic romcom beats while giving the genre a refreshing, much-needed update.”
Led by Emmy nominee Billy Eichner (Billy on the Street, Difficult People, and the voice of Timon in 2019's The Lion King) – the first openly gay man to co-write and star in his own major studio film — and Luke Macfarlane (Brothers & Sisters), the movie features an entirely LGBTQ+ principal cast, including Queerties Badass nominee Ts Madison (The Ts Madison Experience), Emmy nominee Dot-Marie Jones (Glee), and Teen Choice nominee Monica Raymund (Hightown, Chicago Fire). Also look out for the likes of Debra Messing, Kenan Thompson, Amy Schumer, Ben Stiller, Seth Meyers and RuPaul’s Drag Race star Symone.
Directed by BAFTA-nominated filmmaker Nicholas Stoller (Forgetting Sarah Marshall), who co-wrote the script with Eichner, and produced by Emmy winner Judd Apatow, Bros is a smart, swoony and heartfelt comedy about how hard it is to find another tolerable human being to go through life with.
