Dylan O'Brien gay sex scene in new film "Twinless"

# 2 :

Directed by DL Fave Sydney Sweeney's flat-chested brother.

[quote]Still, it's hot to finally see Dylan do a gay sex scene.

Is it tho?

r3 YES!!!

Who is he?

I like that gif at op's link.

Dylan really knows how to move those hips!

Damn, I'd love to get fucked by him.

[quote] Who is he?

Well, grandma.

He started out in his first major role as "Stiles" in MTV's "Teen Wolf" with Tyler Posey and Tyler Hoechlin.

Then he got a major leading role as "Thomas" in "The Maze Runner," "The Maze Runner: Scorch Trials," and "The Maze Runner: Death Cure."

His biggest leading role to date was as "Mitch Rapp" in "American Assassin."

After that, it has kind of been downhill for him, with "Love and Monsters" being his last major role in 2020.

Hopefully, this role in "Twinless" will breathe some life into his career.

I hate to say it, but Timmy Chalamet has really sucked all the air out of the careers of male actors of his generation.

That includes Dylan O'Brien.

I’m sorry this irks me

O’Brien who has failed to live up to his hype and is in danger out of becoming irrelevant is doing this out of career desperation.

For a heterosexual actor to do something like this shows how much the litmus is being pushed for actors who want to be acknowledged as “brave”

It is one thing to have gay actors do this in Fellow Travelers as a way of reclaiming performative onscreen homosexuality

But this shows just how heterosexual actors will push the bar even further. They MUST be acknowledged for how brave they are.

He also happens to be the guy getting fucked at op and R1.

James probably fantasized a very long time, about Dylan playing gay, much less Dylan fucking him in a movie.

A dream come true!

[quote] O’Brien who has failed to live up to his hype and is in danger out of becoming irrelevant is doing this out of career desperation.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

That said, I really don't mind seeing Dylan playing gay.

I've wanted to see it for a long time. Especially after seeing his long lost friend Tyler Posey playing gay with Avan Jogia.

R4 I mean...I get it. Believe me, I'm an O'Brien fan but a straight actor in a gay sex scene feels...gimmicky TO ME, but that's my hang-up. Enjoy!!

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 100% of 22 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 8.0/10. Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 82 out of 100, based on 11 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".

R8 is posting from 1997. Give it a fucking rest, Mary!

[quote] but a straight actor in a gay sex scene feels...gimmicky TO ME

An actor ACTING feels gimmicky to you? Don’t you have a Queers for Palestine rally to go to, Comrade Dumbass?

Dylan played gay before. He fucked Ed O’Neill in another production.

He plays Dan Akroyd in that movie about SNL.

[quote] Dylan played gay before. He fucked Ed O’Neill in another production.

Oh, shit I forgot about that one!! Weird City Episode 1 - "The One."

It's one of my favorite YouTube Originals, because it has so much heart.

You wouldn't think so, but Dylan and Ed were such a great pairing!

Dylan as a top is not believable. It takes me out of the movie.

It doesn't look like it's entering the anus.

I'd rather see his friend Avan Jogia in the gay sex scenes - especially topping the other guy. He's much sexier than Dylan.

Looks like he knows what he’s doing.

Not to be square but I do often wonder what makes these scenes relevant to the plot. Ok, they’re fucking. Then what?

The film has been well reviewed out of Sundance but is said to be very weird.

Hot. I love a white boy with rhythm.

For all you bitching about straights playing gays - I'd like to hear your suggestions on which homo should have been cast in this role.

R22, if it’s a gay role, it has to be Bowen Yang, because he counts as two.

Amateur.

Day late & decade short bitch.

As sex, it's somehow unconvincing.

R7 says “grandma” as though not knowing or caring who Dylan O’Brien is shows that you’re old, as opposed to what it really shows, which is that not all of us are midwits who watch garbage like “Teen Wolf”.

R7 (Mother O'Brien) is sadly over-committed and MUST rely on ageist crap because that's all she has.

He'd had to have a 12-in cock to be effective in the position shown in the second gif.

And we're sure he doesn't.

R22 you're late for 2nd dinner

He looks kind of simian.

Meh. Wasn't this guy the geek of Teen Wolf? Whoever found him attractive? He got smashed up in an accident and was wired together a. Past 30. Really, another tiresome lumpen frau obsession. Too many here lately. Haynes was way hotter and took it up the ass. For real. Team Colto.

Damn looks hot

R32 only to a fat femcel who is clueless as to how to tap a man's mussy.

This reminds me of when Dylan and Tyler roomed together.

Only geriatric stans north of 50 know any of this shit, gramps.

R8, please just STOP. It's 2025. Straight actors play gay characters all the time, and vice-versa. No, there is no rational basis for assuming Dylan is "cosplaying gay" just to be "brave." He appeals to millennials & Gen Z, not Boomers. Or do you feel the same about Daniel Craig, Paul Mescal, Harry Styles, and every other straight actor who's playing a gay character just in the past 4-5 years?

Also, it's Sundance. No one expects indie flicks to actually "break out" nowadays, and regardless of who stars in the movie, it's most likely being released straight to streaming, if at all.

If only there was a convenient and affordable way to watch actual gay men having real sex.

Oh my god! Just saw these on X.

I assume the sex in the scene is non-simulated.

[quote] I assume the sex in the scene is non-simulated.

Is this a film set or a teenage brothel???

R38, sorry to disappoint you, but sex scenes are 100% simulated. There's nothing remotely "hot" about trying to fake fucking in front of dozens of crew, given that it can take literally hours just to set up the lighting for each filmed angle. Also, they always tone it down in post, but the lighting used to film these scenes is always bright; they simply adjust the tint levels to maintain continuity.

OTOH DL queens seem to also be operating under the delusion that gay porn models all "get off" doing it, not that it's a job (let alone the reality that gay-for-pay actually exists).

Dylan O’Brien wins the U.S. Dramatic Special Jury Award for Acting at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival for ‘TWINLESS’

In the film, Dylan plays two characters who are identical twins. One brother is a straight bro who lost his extroverted gay twin. The straight bro twin joins a support group (Twinless) for people who have lost a twin, and it's there that he meets the character played by James Sweeney.

The thrusting movement in Gif at OP is not naturalistic. Looks enthusiastic but FAKE AS FUCK (so to speak). The fuck gif at R1 is more natural looking.

The normally anti-gay NYPost gave the film a positive review:

[quote] “Twinless” begins innocently enough, but soon transforms into something much darker and more psychologically sinister. Sweeney’s unpredictable movie twists and writhes, while never losing sight of its layered characters’ heartfelt longing.

[quote] (Dylan O'Brien) plays Rocky, Roman’s extroverted gay brother, in flashbacks from before the accident. Although the stark contrast between the siblings is impressive, the actor’s most shattering moment comes in a hotel when rough Roman uncages his trapped feelings. I can’t recall such a raw performance in a comedy in ages.

[quote] You’ll begin “Twinless” with basic expectations, and you’ll end it with your mouth agape.

R37

Why do I feel like Tyler Posey is all over this thread seething in envy.

R41 hope the doctors did a better job reconstructing his "twin's" face.

Dylan is hot. It really looks like he is putting his dick in the bottom’s ass. 👏

OK, more awards at Sundance.

And your hole will be agape, too!

[quote]O’Brien who has failed to live up to his hype and is in danger out of becoming irrelevant is doing this out of career desperation.

I cut him some slack because of the accident on the Mazerunner movies which almost killed him and put him out of commission just as his career was ramping up. Also, there's been varying rumors about the extent of long-term damage that was done to him, not to mention almost dying probably makes you step back for a while.

I actually think this story sounds very interesting.

Did James Sweeney write it, or was it adapted from a

Gay baiter

The thrusting is fine but what the fuck was that makeout scene? One of them had to have terrible breath because I've never seen a kissing scene this bad before.

Oh Jesus Christ of course Russell Mulcahey is in this thread.

R33 Meh, you tried

For those who are interested, here is a gif of the straight sex scene, where you can see more of Dylan's ass:

That’s gay 🍑

Hmm directing yourself in explicit sex scenes is risky business these days. I guess it’s less likely to blow up in your face when there are no fraus involved but still.

R36 I agree. All this brouhaha over staged sex is ridiculous. Movies and TV have been going overboard with them for a long time now. They’re really never plot relevant. It’s purely for exploitation.

Wait, is it the straight brother fucking the guy, or is this a flashback to the dead gay brother?

Screencaps:

R57 this fug only makes your gash wet Tiny.. like a dozen glazed.

R57 Fug bitch violates my copyright on white pasty flat asses.

Ooooooo oooooooo ! The most DARING BRAVE CONTROVERSIAL CUTTING EDGE performace from A DROP DEAD GORGEOUS MAJOR MOTION PICTURE HETEROSEXUAL ACTOR EVAH! I predict Mr O'Brien will not leave the OSCARS empty handed. RIGHT.

R27 if you didn't watch Teen Wolf, how do you know it's garbage? Who made you the arbiter of taste and intelligence, anyway?

Slay bitch

I always assumed he had a much hairier ass.

[quote]Well, grandma. He started out in his first major role as "Stiles" in MTV's "Teen Wolf" with Tyler Posey and Tyler Hoechlin.

As if that’s supposed to be some great revelation of who some barely-known millennial actor is out of a cadre of other bland actors of his ilk and generation. And, there is only ONE true Teen Wolf and Stiles (the Stiles from Teen Wolf Too doesn’t count).

OMG ! STILES! OMG! THIS IS EVERYTHING !!

[quote] I always assumed he had a much hairier ass.

Me too.

Dylan has very hairy arms and a hairy chest, so I assumed his ass was the same.

I'm pretty sure Dylan has a hairy ass, based on this photo.

[quote] As if that’s supposed to be some great revelation of who some barely-known millennial actor is out of a cadre of other bland actors of his ilk and generation.

He's an excellent actor. Especially good at comedy. Are you saying a generation of actors isn't any good? I don't care if an actor is famous or not, who cares?

R76

"Dylan O’Brien wins the U.S. Dramatic Special Jury Award for Acting at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival for ‘TWINLESS’ "

Yeah he must really suck as an actor.

Trouble with some folks here is they only glom onto some actor when they become acclaimed and famous. They all have to start somewhere, and it usually ain't at the top.

Maybe there’s some residual sympathy for Dylan for what happened to him.

After our President appoints me Porn Czar this kind of filth will be eradicated.

[quote]For all you bitching about straights playing gays - I'd like to hear your suggestions on which homo should have been cast in this role.

R22, well, I suppose they could have cast DL fave Julian Morris (although he is 9 years older than Dylan):

He's so HOT in "American Assassin."

Bearded and hairy

This was my screensaver

He's really hamming it up in OP's clip.

[quote] He's really hamming it up in OP's clip.

Um, that's his thing.

You've clearly never seen Dylan in Teen Wolf.

And if you want to go even further back, you can see Dylan hamming it up on his YouTube channel, when he was still in high school.

Dylan created all his own content way back when he was in high school, and it was actually pretty funny stuff.

He really excels at comedy.

I'm not sure why Hollywood tried to push him into being a serious leading man, when he could have been much better as a leading male in a RomCom or something. Girls absolutely love him when he's funny.

His mom is/was an actress and his dad a camera operator, so he was very lucky in that he had a foot in the business from a young age, just like Timmy Chalamet.

Yeah, ham.

He was such a charming boy and young man. Of course ham was in the mix. Being able to serve him in the right proportion is an art.

serve HAM. sheesh, what a typo. I'll see myself out.

I love that Dylan kept his "moviekidd826" YouTube channel.

He was still making videos as recently as 2019.

For those saying they thought his ass would’ve been much hairier, perhaps he shaved it to play whatever role that is at R70?

Either way, he truly is gorgeous.

R84 this is your screen saver

I love Dylan, I'm envious of his acting abilities, but I never thought he was gorgeous. Maybe I did, in one or two scenes in Teen Wolf, when the camerawork and lighting were extra loving (it was a very well-photographed show, for the time. Very movie-like). I know many girls and woman (and men) adore him, but I was more attracted by his character, Stiles, and the way he played other things. I did find of become fascinated with his moles, and his beautiful eye color.

*kind of

I spotted Dylan's talent instantly.

R97, he seems so happy doing what he loves.

So much female obesity in this thread.

[quote] So much female obesity in this thread.

Lumpen?

He’s your typical Irish-Italian bro.

I watched a Comic Con panel where he was asked if he only had a short time to live, what would he do? He gave a long, serious answer about making sure his loved ones knew he cared about them or whatever. Then Tyler Posey (sitting net to him) said "You wouldn't have sex in public?" And it cracked him up. Always thought those two were funny together.

Is he white?

Pulled from streaming

R97 Amateur.

Is it just me, or is Dylan's hairline receding?

No, Dylan's hair actually grows really fast.

And this is why.

R106 Dude, it happens. Why is that such a big deal on DL?

[quote] Is he white?

Mixed. He’s half Italian.

Dylan can twerk too.

[quote] 'Twinless' director James Sweeney was hesitant to talk about his sex scene with Dylan O'Brien. Then it leaked online.

The buzz around Twinless out of the 2025 Sundance Film Festival was so intense, the film had to be pulled from the festival’s exclusive streaming website because scenes leaked on TikTok and X.

The movie, which won the festival’s top audience award, follows two men who meet at a support group for people who have lost a twin. It stars James Sweeney, who also wrote and directed the movie, and Dylan O’Brien, who won the festival’s special jury award for acting for his dual role as twins.

Growing up in an era when Lindsay Lohan’s Parent Trap and several movies featuring the Olsen twins dominated pop culture, Sweeney developed a fascination with that extra-close sibling dynamic. He dated an identical twin, and when he started thinking about what it would be like to lose a twin, he thought it was the “saddest thing I’ve ever heard.”

“Honestly, if I think about it too much, I will cry. It’s such a profound bond,” he said.

Sweeney, who also wrote, directed and starred in the 2019 rom-com Straight Up, said there were years when “everybody in town passed on” Twinless. O’Brien signed on early in the process, though, and “never doubted it.”

Sweeney was hesitant to give much away about O’Brien’s role but said the actor filmed each of his twin character scenes separately across different months. He plays both Roman, who Sweeney’s character Dennis bonds with in a support group, and Roman’s deceased twin, Rocky.

As a former child actor who starred in the popular Teen Wolf series and Maze Runner movies but has since become a Sundance regular, O’Brien has a dedicated online fanbase that broke past the film’s secretive festival promotion and may have contributed toward the leak of his Twinless scenes.

Lauren Graham plays Roman and Rocky’s mom, who spends much of the film grieving. Sweeney, a big Gilmore Girls fan, said he was “reticent” about reaching out to her at first.

“I was like, ‘Is she going to think I’m a lunatic?’” he joked. “I think she’s such a wonderful actress ... and I have so much respect for her.”

On the red carpet for the Twinless premiere, Graham repeatedly spoke about how thrilled she was to be able to take on a darker role because she never gets opportunities like this.

Another nugget from his childhood that Sweeney put into the movie was a reference to the life simulator computer game The Sims. Dennis and Roman dress as the video game characters for a costume party.

“I’d lose days of my life to The Sims,” Sweeney said. “You get to build your own world. It ties into Dennis constructing these fantasies.”

He was hesitant to talk about the sex scene in the movie, but less than a week after the interview, it leaked online. The scene involves Sweeney, who directed himself, and O’Brien.

“It helped that it was such a comfortable set. I think ultimately I had to shove down the personal, bodily, actorly insecurities and take control as a director,” he said. “This services the movie, and this is what I need to do, so I need to compartmentalize those emotions.”

At its premiere, Twinless drew a lot of laughs and made a lot of people physically cringe. There’s a twist Sweeney didn’t want to discuss because he wants the film to have “a full life” in theaters. He hopes people are “a lot more curious after they’ve seen it versus going into it.”

One thing he was eager to share, though, was that the film cast real-life twins as the background talent in support group scenes. Local casting agencies put out fliers seeking them out.

“I had just come back from scouting a location ... to the Airbnb where I was staying, and I was looking around, and I thought, ‘Are those twins?’” he said, then walked up to the pair. “I was like, ‘Hi, excuse me, are you twins? ... I’m directing a movie and we’re looking for twins.’”

They said they already knew about him and his movie — they’d seen the flier. One was too busy to film, but the other ended up joining the cast.

He was in Teen Wolf?

He's cute Doesn't bother me if a straight guy does a gay sex scene..

Move the period to the end of the second sentence and you have two thirds of an ellipsis.

They finally got the angles right for the anal scenes, which is something Bryan Fuller used to complain about constantly back in the day. Amazing what happens when you have a gay director directing a gay movie, isn't it.

R112 264 words about a phoney bad gay sex scene by a fug mediocre never was TV actor. Really. Get a life you flipping cow.🙄

Sweeney is hesitant the way Susan Collins is concerned

I've often seen Dylan referred to as a former child actor, but his first real gig was on Teen Wolf, when he was...19.

[quote] when he was...19.

Too old.
