Alexander Skarsgard is the lead in new kinky biker queer film, “Pillion”

I've lost interest in him after he had a child.

Was it a turkey baster child?

50 Shades of Gay

And not a single one of those bikers will be played by a gay or even a queer actor.

This actually seems interesting. Or at least hot.

Agreed, R5.

How do you know this, R4, and why would it matter even if so? It’s called *acting*.

whatever happened to that Tom Hardy biker movie? I'd join that movie's biker gang over this Eurodork's gang.

Taking all sorts of virginities? Anal, vaginal, animal, vegetable, mineral? What exactly are we talking about here?

Has a trailer been released?

“ Has a trailer been released?”, he wrote with one hand.

R10 they haven’t even filmed it yet

Harry Mellling is a great actor: The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, The Tragedy of Macbeth, The Devil All the Time, etc; but boy, is he ugly.

R8 The Bikeriders will be released in June.

Not to break you gentlemen's hearts, but in my experience, whenever there is a motorcycle parked in front of a gay bar, it invariably belongs to a lesbian.

R13 isn’t that part of the point of him being so submissive to someone so handsome?

Bitch stole my act.

I mostly know Melling from “The Queen’s Gambit” as the chess wiz crushing on Anya Taylor-Joy. As such he had a certain nerdy sexual intensity.

It’ll be good casting if he has a great ass and we can watch Alex spanking and fucking him.

Damn, I'm old! I forgot about the gay men's BDSM clubs they called MCs. Of course, as far as I could tell, they didn't actually ride motorcycles (PhillyWhore, could you enlighten me about that?), but they wore leather vests and chaps to look the part.

Back in the 'burg, it was the Pennsmen, and I just now looked up the Philadelphia MC, which I'd never heard of before. They meet at the Bike Stop in Philly (of course). And the Shipmates in Baltimore is another men's BDSM club that I heard of years ago, but I don't think they call themselves a motorcycle club or (pretend to) ride motorcycles.

AFAIK, these BDSM "motorcycle club" guys don't actually ride. Hopefully, if I'm wrong, somebody can post a link here and straighten me out (so to speak).

I posted a link to the Pennsmen just for fun.

I’ve read about all male, all gay motorcycle clubs out of California in the 1950s, supposedly partly inspired by (and no doubt aroused by) the movie “The Wild One.” S&M was very much on the program between a lot of the couples.

The film got an 8 minute standing ovation at Cannes.

[quote]IndieWire was particularly effusive, stating: “Harry Lighton's first feature outdoes Babygirl in its graphic and psychologically complex portrayal of an aloof leather-clad biker and his devoted submissive.”

Babygirl crawled so Pillion could run?

Henry Melling is a great actor. And so much more than Harry Potter's cousin on screen and the grandson of The Second Doctor from Doctor Who in real life.

Shit

*Harry Melling

Is it a musical?

[quote] I've lost interest in him after he had a child.

That won't change the fact he's still a closet case.

It sounds depressing, but I'll still watch it.

Jesus Skarsgard is ageless. Still gorgeous.

I wish Kittycat Connor were playing the sub.

Looks promising. All of the external critics' reviews linked in IMDb so far are four stars.

His dad, Stellan, is a far more interesting actor. Stellan was fantastic in "Andor."

r30 But do they kith?

I'm sure his sons will be more interesting actors when they're his age. That tends to come with mileage, both in career and in life in general.

The source novel by Adam Mars-Jones (entitled "Box Hill") is a good, sexy read.

I am so tired of the breeders doing these movies where they pretend to be gay with "graphic" sex scenes. It's like if someone did blackface for blaxploitation films.

Is it OK if they’re just pretending to be straight?

He's hot but Bill is my sexual fantasy especially if he doesn't wind up looking like Steve Buscemi later in life.

Melling also played a great Edgar Allan Poe in The Pale Blue Eye.

R4 "And not a single one of those bikers will be played by a gay or even a queer actor."

Apart from the leading man, that is.

R1 The younger one has two or three. I was kinda shocked.

Is Skarsgard still friends/lovers with that southern guy?

R14 Is it OK if they’re just pretending to be straight?

You betccha!

r36 The problem is that gay actors aren't offered those opportunities, while straight actors are provided opportunities for both AND praised for it. Being gay remains a barrier in casting, and with the current anti-gay sentiment right now, that will probably increase over the next few years. I don't want to see a straight person in a gay role, because other than those roles, gay actors will have nothing.

R43 Preach.

Did the sub in training have to look like Margaret Hamilton?

R45 its the new queerbait vogue . Pair up a hawt guy with a fug. The gay fugs will by tickets and fantasize and the fraus won't feel threatened . Winning formula for Saltburn.

It's was a winning formula for us.

How does Skarsgard identify in real life?

R48 I mean I don’t think he’s ever said but he was on Colbert last week talking about making out with a “Viggo Mortenson lookalike” and he brought that up a couple times, saying he makes out with guys when he’s drunk. Now he COULD be queerbaiting for the movie because he _was_ there to promote it. But he does make out with men when drunk according to other articles that predate this PR round. Plus I think his relationship with the mother of his child is fairly lassaiz-faire. They don’t live together and actually never even gave any indication in the American press of being together. He takes Whatshisguts from 30Rock as his plus-one to industry events in the States.

Loved him in Generation Kill. He was gorgeous and manly.
