In my opinion, the new unwritten goal in casting these new LBGTQ series where there is a gay romantic couple headlining the show is to cast at least one gay actor, often little known or new to the biz, with an experienced straight star > Eg/ Omar Rudberg with experienced likely straight actor Edvin Ryding and Joe Locke with equally experienced likely straight Kit Connor.
Interview questions about their sexuality and personal dating lives are obviously made off-limits if you've been paying attention to protect their off-camera privacy, keep the focus strictly on the show and their characters, and avoid the whole gay role-straight actor casting landmine issue which "Love Triangles, Victor" got nailed with!
