"Walking Dead" actor Daniel Newman comes out as gay

Good for him.

And he's hot too.

You could tell by the hundred bed selfies in bed on his Instagram.

Damn son

Now Jesus can have a boyfriend!!!

Well something about his instagram gave it away...

Sexy

Good for him, but apparently he's hoping that the attention will lead to some bigger acting roles. If you go to his YouTube page, you'll see that almost immediately after posting the "coming out" video, he posted a video of his acting reel.

An actor is hoping to get jobs? Stop the presses!

Someone find out who his boyfriend is.

Cool!

I don't recognize him from Walking Dead -- what did he play?

He wasn't a zombie extra, was he?

Hardly a surprise considering that bottomface.

Seriously which character is he???

Are people unable to read the damn link?

[quote]Daniel Newman, who plays Daniel, a member of The Kingdom on The Walking Dead [/quote]

Imdb shows he was in 5 episodes.

Coming out (at least broadly) as P.R.

Maybe he's hoping GLAAD will give him an award.

He apparently used to have some sexy music video that he took down from his youtube

So he's two steps from gay porn. I think he dodged a bullet.

Great for him. He's hot too.

Definitely a lesser member of the Kingdom on TWD. I remember Ezekial, Jerry, Benjamin, the guy Morgan killed who wanted to fight the Saviors ............ and the tiger.

But 'Daniel' ..........nope.

But based on his pics, I wish he'd had a bigger role.

Welcome to the tribe ........ officially.

Great to have another hot bromo dudebro come out!

[quote]Hardly a surprise considering that bottomface.

Looking at his boyfriend, Daniel is not the one in that couple that has bottomface

[quote]Someone find out who his boyfriend is.

It's his twin Nathaniel

He was half of the first Kingdom duo we ever saw, way back before we went the Kingdom. He's been sidelined since we have gone there though

i guess he had to have an angle for that comic con booth money.

It's great that there now is an openly gay actor on such a "bro" fanboy show. The Walking Dead fans can be very homophobic, sadly. Also.. he's quite masculine. Who knows.. maybe he's able to make some bigoted people realize gays are just like everyone else.

Hot dudebro

I mean...how could you tell? They look alike.

Oh GOD, shut the fuck up. You vapid, boring, out of touch antique.

R17 He looks gay as fuck there...

AWG and then some.

I remember him from that first scene, but don't recall ever seeing him again. Of course, I do wind up doing other things when watching TWD these days.

R28, you're the idiot here, not me. It's a well known fact that the TWD fans are bigots. Remember this?

[quote]maybe he's able to make some bigoted people realize gays are just like everyone else.

Let me guess: You blame Liberals and SJWs for everything as you desperately seek the approval of conservative homophobes.

That's his brother, people.

Blah blah blah R33. We seek to persuade the ignorant like you since we are forced to share a planet with you. If you consider that "seeking approval," then you are clinging to a disgusting and immoral social status hierarchy which is thankfully dying.

If you watch the video, he doesn't come off as the brightest bulb and the whole "I never identified as gay because I am not a flamer" just reinforces that - I can understand that coming from some 15 year old kid in a small rural town but he is a 35 year old man who has been started working in TV as a kid, was scouted as a model for Bruce Weber, played in bands in NYC and lived in Hollywood for fucks sake. He keeps using the word "community" but it took him this long to come out and he acts like it is the most eventful thing for gay rights ever (or "LGBT" as he keeps saying awkwardly) - I guess better late than never but he's a b-list actor with a waning career. I mean kudos for volunteering with gay homeless youth but something just seems off about him...I do love how he included "going to Yale" in his IMDB bio but it was probably just a summer acting workshop - I doubt the boy even graduated from college.

HOT MASC ACTOR COMES OUT, DL ELDERMARYS DIVIDED!

He's pretty hot. Good for him. Hopefully he won't fade away completely and will continue to find acting gigs.

His brother?

Are they Lannisters?

Oh please, I'm not ignorant one. You cannot persuade the actual ignorant ones - that's why they're ignorant. Until it personally affects them, you can't change them because the ignorance and selfishness go hand-in-hand.

[quote][R28], you're the idiot here, not me. It's a well known fact that the TWD fans are bigots. Remember this?

This is not about homophobic TWD fans, pal. This is about YOU thinking that just because a “Dudebro” gay person comes out of the closet ALL will be okay. It’s also about how this way of thinking COMPLETELY overlooks and disregards the efforts and sacrifices made by every out, effeminate gay man that paved the way for the “Dudebros” that you worship.

The really disgusting part of this? You’re old enough to know better.

[quote]I never identified as gay because I am not a flamer" just reinforces that - I can understand that coming from some 15 year old kid in a small rural town but he is a 35 year old man

I mean…. I said that shit when I was 18 and had never knowingly socialized with a gay person. They’re gonna turn on him like they did Tovey. LOL

Oh ffs R42, give him a break. He obviously grew up in the South as he has a Southern accent. Of course he has some internalized homophobia, what do you expect? It's deplorable country ffs. Tovey on the other hand is from gay friendly Britain, he should have known better.

I work on TWD, and he's definitely not closeted on the set.

Did he have more than 1 line, I don't remember him.

I love the people claiming he came out for PR reasons - if that were the case more male actors would be out

Not as scary as these Newman twins.

Good to see masc4masc bros!

While these Newman twins are trying to bring back Corktown in Detroit with a bagel shop.

When your career isn't going places R46 you work whatever angle you can, yes?

Look what it did for Haynes: an internet commercial for an app (with no lines) and a starring role in "Grannie" with Kathy Griffin.

Uh is there something wrong with him trying to find more work?

He knows what he did and he can burn for it.

His role on Walking Dead is so small should he even mention himself as being part of the show?

Probably did it because its a widely known show. This thread has 50+ responses, does this mean he was successful? :)

[quote] I love the people claiming he came out for PR reasons

Yeah, I'm sure it's just a coincidence that within minutes of posting the coming out video on his YouTube page, he posted his acting reel.

SHut up r56. Your mindset is what is wrong with the wrong. Negative spirit

Well I'd take it as a good sign if coming out actually gets him MORE work. Not what we're used to seeing.

Been following Daniel for a few years on social media and always figured he was gay, nice to see it official.

Care to dish on the castmates that are actually relevant, r44?

I'd rather take Jim Newman to bed

I grew up in the South as well R43. What's your point? He's a 35-year-old actor in Hollywood. HE should know better.

Stop making excuses for people you want to fuck.

He's a hot bro!

Has "bro" lost its meaning?

Not to the dudebro troll...

Very pretty. 9/10, would bang.

Can you please stop writing "bro" and "dude" and "dudebro". It's stupid and irritating

They really know how to grow some hotties down there in Atlanta. His accent has a slight southern lilt to it which is SEXAY!

R56, if coming out is such a great career move.....then why do most gay actors stay in the closet?

Because it's the opposite R68. It's more difficult to get roles after coming out so the people saying it's for PR are idiots. Everyone knows you get blackballed in Hollywood if you're out or you get typecast and you have to practically shove yourself back in the closet or never bring it up again like Luke Evans.

We're not at the point where being out gets you more acting roles.

R66, most guys are not prissy effeminate who object to mainstream language and expressions

Congrats to Daniel. He is hot!

So looks like he's bisexual and not gay

r72 He is dead to me

But what about his brother/bf

I feel the same way, R73, I'm so sick of the bisexuals. I really thought he was gay. Hearing now that he's actually bisexual is so disappointing :(

When being closeted isn't helping your career, try coming out as a bisexual for that little extra attention.

Cover boy for Attitude, July 2017.

So brave

SC's Tanner is officially gay! My gaydar never fails me 😍😍

[quote]Lol. Whoa. I'm amazed you all know him. Love you guys but I don't talk about my private life.

Bitch please Daniel Newman. You knew what you were doing, you knew danmn well your followers are going to recognize you hanging out with one of the most famous faces from one of the most famous gay porn sites.

Daniel deleted a photo of them together that was very coupley.

This guy is kinda weird and needy. I frequently seem him in Instagay comment sections asking if they "unfollowed" him followed by a frowning emoji.

And why didn’t you screenshot it, r81?

Hah, I’ve seen that too, r82. At first I bought he was joking, but when I saw it under multiple accounts and people genuinely responded, I realized he was serious.

Damn r82, that is so cringey and pathetic. Yikes Newman!

I will say, I unfollowed him from insta, but now that he is probably dating Sean Cody's Tanner, that makes me want to follow him. So well done I guess.

This isn't the same picture, but he just posted another pic together with him

Just another bottom.
