'I mean, the whole cast of Bros is openly LGBTQ. 'It's a change of pace for me too,' adds Eichner, who wrote his film with director Nicholas Stoller ( Get Him to the Greek, Neighbors 2). 'Comedy is still largely a male heterosexual space, and both of us are used to navigating that for the majority of our careers, so this was a huge change of pace for me,' Booster says of Fire Island, which he also wrote. Booster, 34, stars in the Pride and Prejudice-inspired romantic-comedy Fire Island, hitting Hulu on June 3 and Eichner, 43, will headline the first gay rom-com ever released by a major studio when Universal's Bros hits theaters Sept. Experiencing that shorthand at work may not be commonplace for the former Billy on the Street colleagues (Booster was a writer on the Eichner-fronted show), but it was certainly the case on their most recent projects.
