Deep Inside Hollywood: Mike Flanagan

3 days ago | outinjersey.net | Romeo San Vicente

Filmmaker Mike Flanagan is deep in the Stephen King business these days. His new feature The Life of Chuck — based on an unusually heartwarming Stephen King story — has opened to positive reviews and good word of mouth, and his next project is going back to classic King material: Carrie.
Creep of the Week: Fascism

1 week ago | outinjersey.net | D'Anne Witkowski

Happy Pride, everybody! I have my Pride flags hanging on my porch (one rainbow, one white, pink, and blue) and have noticed a couple of neighbors with Pride flags. It’s a happy time of year. Well, it should be. But, well, the people with the most power in this country really, really, really hate us. All of us, LGBTQ and then some. Not an exaggeration to say that he hates the majority of the country.
Zine launch and queer performances at EDGE NJ

1 week ago | outinjersey.net | Jonny Kandell

Non-profit EDGE NJ hosted a zine launch party at its Parsippany headquarters to raise funds and celebrate the work of local queer artists on Monday, June 2. As an organization set on “Responding compassionately and responsibly to the HIV+ and LGBTQ communities,” the sale of the inaugural publication will go towards advancing EDGE NJ’s progressive mission. The alt publication is set to promote visibility and harness the power of creativity to break down stigma.
Creep of the Week: RFK Jr. and 'We're all going to die' Joni Ernst

2 weeks ago | outinjersey.net | D'Anne Witkowski

You learn something new every day (though with the Republican crack-down on education and villainizing of scientists, who knows how much longer that will be legal). Today, I learned that Bitcoins make noise. Or, more specifically, that the mining of Bitcoins makes noise. I’m not talking about a bunch of guys underground with pick axes.
Deep Inside Hollywood: Andrew Rannells

2 weeks ago | outinjersey.net | Romeo San Vicente

If you already watch The Great British Baking Show and its American cousin, The Great American Baking Show, and that’s still not enough baking content, the Roku Channel is about to send you into carb overload. The streamer has not only added gay comic actor Andrew Rannells as a co-host to work alongside host Casey Wilson (Schmigadoon!), Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith, but the shows are multiplying.
Deep Inside Hollywood: Laurie Metcalf

4 weeks ago | outinjersey.net | Romeo San Vicente

It has no title yet, but Dan Levy’s new series for Netflix has everything else it needs: a co-creator in Bottoms star Rachel Sennott, and a cast led by Levy, Laurie Metcalf (The Connors), and Taylor Ortega (Another Simple Favor). Levy describes the eight-episode comedy-drama as the “chaotic” story of “two deeply incapable siblings who are blackmailed into the world of organized crime,” a premise bubbling with queer comedic possibility.
Creep of the Week: Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump

1 month ago | outinjersey.net | D'Anne Witkowski

Something that pops into my head a lot (besides the Mentos jingle) is the phrase, “It was a kinder, gentler time.” It’s what my grandparents said when I interviewed them for an undergrad history class project. They were talking about the 1950s. My grandparents, both of whom are no longer living, were white and upper-middle class. They were the kind of people for whom the 1950s were ideal.
Nathan Lane and the "Mid-Century Modern" creators on their very gay new sitcom

1 month ago | outinjersey.net | Chris Azzopardi

On Hulu’s new comedy series Mid-Century Modern, longtime screen and theater actor Nathan Lane brings a familiar effervescence to his swishy character. Like his iconic turn as Albert in The Birdcage, he embodies Bunny with the exuberant flair of a diva hitting the high note of a showstopping number — each step a flourish, every gesture a work of art.
Editors Letter: Our money is our power

1 month ago | outinjersey.net | Sam Martino

Corporations that have previously donated money for Pride events to take place have now pulled back their almighty dollars thanks to the diversity, equity and inclusion stigma that is attached to companies that support DEI initiatives. There is no law that these companies can’t support our Pride events, they are just choosing to take away their support. But Pride events have nothing to do with DEI, they have to do with our LGBTQ community coming together and celebrating our identity.
A bubble of 'siblinghood': How St. Petersburg, Florida defies the state's anti-LGBTQ reputation

1 month ago | outinjersey.net | Chris Azzopardi

It’s easy to dismiss Florida as merely ground zero for anti-queer legislation; after all, the state earned an Advisory Warning from Equality Florida in 2023 — this before similar federal actions against the LGBTQ community followed. Yet my arrival in St. Petersburg revealed a surprising contrast: I landed in the heart of the city during the inaugural Winter Pride, a weeklong celebration held in February, openly embracing the LGBTQ community in full force.
