“I want to bring gay sex to the forefront in a very accurate, human way. “You’re blue-balling us the entire film, and then they fuck and you turn away? Go fuck yourself. I was like, ‘Are you fucking kidding me? This movie has more straight sex and more fruit sex than actual gay sex’. “I am so frustrated by the lack of representation of gay sex in TV and film, like in Call Me by Your Name when they panned away to the moon. “I had a very clear image of what I wanted that sex scene to look like, and my director Anna Dokoza and I were always on the same page,” he explained of a scene that involves his character losing his virginity to a sex worker. The Jim Parsons-produced series, which premieres on the streaming service on 12 April, follows a gay man living with mild cerebral palsy who decides to rewrite his identity as an accident victim and finally go after the life he wants.įortunately, the series won’t be shying away from sex and relationships, as Ryan recently stressed to Vulture how important it is for him to provide accurate representation of gay sex in mainstream media. Special is a brand new eight-part comedy based on series creator and star Ryan’s part-memoir, part-manifesto I’m Special: And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves, and it looks hilarious. Ryan O’Connell has opened up about the importance of sex in his new Netflix show.
