Greg Berlanti to SHIT all over Rock Hudson

[quote]Greg Berlanti to SHIT all over Rock Hudson

Pics please.

His love Simon movie was cute, but he doesn't have the talent to direct an oscar contender film like this.

He kind of shits all over the superhero shows too.

It's 2018 so you just know it's going to be preachy and tragic...all about the closet and blah...blah...blah...meanwhile the truth is that Rock Hudson was happy, well adjusted, lived how he pleased and knew how to navigate Hollywood.

Greg Berlanti is known for shitting all over his tricks in the Studio City pied-à-terre he keeps for getting fisted.

So what's up with berlanti? Who dicks did he ride from those cw shows?

Well this will be milquetoast.

[quote] Greg Berlanti to SHIT all over Rock Hudson

He can start with my coffee table!

I hope they are careful on whom they cast to paly Hudson as that is make or break

Armie Hammer would have made a good Rock Hudson at one point but now he just annoys the fuck out of everyone.

Get that loser far away from gay roles, hammer should stick to playing douche jocks in big flops. Get a real gay actor to play rock don't straight wash.

So c'mon DL, who is he gonna cast?

Actually, Hammer with dyed hair is a great choice. I guess Jon Hamm's too old.

I just watched Giant the other night. Hudson stepping off that train in the opening scene was breathtaking, just breathtaking. Nobody I can think of now can touch him. Armie Hammer, lol.

I think he hits peak Rock in the mid-'60s in "The Seconds." He is past his pretty boy phase and looks super manly and a little dissipated, with some sexy dark circles under his eyes. Film is black and white, everyone looks better in b & w.

Eh. I don't think Greg Berlanti OF ALL PEOPLE will straightwash a ay character.

Also worth noting that all of Simon's love interests on Love, Simon are either gay/bi in real life.

another misunderstood bisexual, teehee; Germany's main boulevard rag was really angry that they didn't have Freddy Mercury's girlfriend in the movie, the rag pretended that was his main love

I am happy for Berlantis success but yeah, this sums up his work pretty well.

You are all so jealous. Berlanti is a fucking genius. The Arrowverse rocks. Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is AMAZING. Love, Simon was brill. He is a pioneer for LGBTQ representation and this will surely be a major Oscar contender.

Snort r19.

Throughout Berlantis entire television career he has only managed one Emmy nomination.

But yes, this will certainly been an awards darling....

Berlanti wrote and directed The Broken Hearts Club which makes me think he'll make Rock an extremely likable character. Dean Cain played a sort of hunky Rock Hudson like star in the film who fucked every man he saw but was in the end still a nice guy.

Armie Hammer as Rock. Timothée Chalamet as Liz Taylor.. Brilliant!

being non-American, when I read the title, I somehow thought Rock Hudson is a pornstar.

r22 FF

Berlanti is a good fit here. He definitely has it him to be true to Hudson without getting overly sappy. Now who could play Hudson? Jon Hamm would be perfect a bit too old perhaps? Armie Hammer? Lmao. Gotta be joking. We need a good actor with real charisma.

Love, Simon is trash. This is nervous-making news.

"everyone looks better in b & w. "

Not people with light eyes!

People with large dark eyes look absolutely fantastic in black and white, and that includes Hudson.

OP, Rock was into Scat ?

Who's going to play his husband Jim Nabors?

Who’s gonna play Rock? Nick Robinson, probably?

Kyle Dean Massey has a classic film star look. Cast it short and he is perfect.

He looks like the AIDS version of rock that kissed the lady from Dynasty.

Please no. Kyle Dean Massey would be swept away by a strong breeze.

Roy "Rock Hudson" Scherer Jr. was a giant slab of former-Navy beef. Berlanti should cast someone convincingly rugged, like rising talent Jake Picking.

You know you want it.

C'mon R24 lighten up, R22 was funny.

Who will be La Liz and his Dyke's beard wife ?

As a gay man he has managed to create a ton of tv shows with SHITTY gay representation. I'm talking GAY MALE. Not lesbians. He seems to have a hard on for lesbians, weirdly enough. The lesbians on all of his shows get plenty of screentime, unlike the gays who are neutered and barely there. Anyways, my expectations are low considering he can't write for shit when it comes to gay characters. I can't imagine he'll do a better job portraying a historical real life gay man. This movie will suck for sure.

If it is indeed an Oscar bait movie the obvious choice for playing Rock Hudson would be Viola Davis.

I love Berlanti's shows and Love, Simon was pretty decent.

I would certainly watch if Viola was cast.

Oh God.

Oscar contender?

Do you think Sean Cody’s Tanner will be auditioning for the role of Rock? I bet his ass is lubed already .

I bet Rock would have enjoyed that.

I hope they cover the UK football players that were pimped out for Rock and friends.

Matt Bomer? Either him or Glenn Close.

Literally?

[quote] Matt Bomer? Either him or Glenn Close.

Too soft and feminine looking.

They better cast an openly gay actor. Oh who am I kidding. Berlanti would never do that.

I really don't know who could play him.

Which "straight" actor will win an Oscar for playing him?

At least humorless aspies sociopath ryan murphy isn’t doing it. It would be some heartless and overly stylized affair.

Wow that gives me an idea......eight episodes.....FX......"Hudson/Taylor"......ratings bonanza......

If the guy at r33 gets cast I am boycotting this movie. Rock Hudson was one of the most beautiful people in creation and the guy at r33 looks like a Frankenstein.

If they don’t cast someone near as gorgeous then fuck this movie. Armie is a decent choice.

The guy at r33 is just some random DLer's choice, no one is casting him in this

Is there something for Colton?

Ive read all the hudson biographies and the general impression I get was Hudson was fun loving with a good sense of humor but he was also a chain smoker, was an alcoholic, was incapable of sustaining a mature relationship,etc. So I would say in some respects he was tortured. You have to remember his career peak was in the late 50s, a very conservative different era and his career would have been caput instantly had anything really leaked out.

Casting somebody to play Hudson will be hard as he was this incredibly beautiful giant hulk of a guy with an amazing face that has never been equalled in my opinion. I look forward to what ever they attempt however/

The Rock.

I don't like the verb used in this thread title. It makes an unpleasant image.

I've been offered the role as the ultimate thespian that ever lived but I've passed and suggested they throw a bone to Glennie. Masculine roles are her forte.

Cody Kearsley as Rock

Greg will de-gay everything about Rock then add a ton of lesbians with a soft porn touch. Just like he does with all of his tv shows. Barely any gay characters, the ones he do have he treats like shit. He has a ton of lesbians on all of his shows though, of course. I will never forgive him for what he did to Kevin on Riverdale, or Moose for that matters.

What good shitting, alone in your room? ...

That should be

What good ish shitting, alone in your room?

OP, R3, R63, R64 all that stuff belongs in a TOILET ! ! !

rrrr

If you haven't seen "Seconds," do try to. I think it's Rock's magnum opus. And it always scares the shikkies out of me.
