Charithra Chandran and Sebastian Croft Talk Diversity in Teen Rom-Coms

www.popsugar.co.uk, April 4, 2024
Charithra Chandran and Sebastian Croft want you to have a blast watching their new film. In Prime Video's coming-of-age romantic comedy "How To Date Billy Walsh," the pair appear as best friends and potential lovers. Amelia and Archie were wandering around Heathbrook Academy, navigating their first experiences of passion, lust, and marriage breakups. It's like a blast from the past, like the classic rom-coms from the 2000s and early 2010s. Billy Walsh's "How To Date Billy Walsh" is both light-hearted and a little silly, and it's all the essential ingredients you'll need for a fruitful teen romance. This role is a radical change of tone for those of you who remember Croft from the critically acclaimed queer drama series "Heartstopper" — playing the manipulative and inflammatory Ben Hope. "Archie is just a silly character," the artist says. "It's lovely to do something different." After diving into something very different and very serious with "Heartstopper," it's so nice to play a warm and over-the-top character.

On your bike!Dame Eileen's Communist granny awaits: PATRICK MARMION reviews 4000 miles

www.dailymail.co.uk, May 12, 2023
PATRICK MARMION: There are some actors you'd be able to see perform extracts from a telephone directory. And, assuming you're old enough to know what a telephone directory is, you may well consider Dame Eileen Atkins to be one of them. She leads the charge in Amy Herzog's 4000 Miles, one of two recent productions of underwhelming dramas debuting in Chichester this summer. (In Noel Coward's 1924 masterpiece The Vortex, the two artists include Lia Williams and rising star Joshua James.) In a story in which a 20-something Seattle man wakes up in the Manhattan apartment of his 91-year-old Communist grandmother, Vera (Atkins), 4000 Miles is a tale. It's a sweet but marginally de-politised 90-minute obituary for New York's Marxist-Leninist Lefties, seen from the point of view of Leo's grandson, who's just cycled around America.

Alice Oseman's Heartstopper books became one of Netflix's biggest international hits last year, and in series two, there will be a woman particularly close to her heart. One of Oseman's teenage protagonists will be exactly like her. 'I am both Ace and Aro,' she told Attitude magazine. Those words refer to little-to-no sexual attraction or little-to-no romantic interest. 'Netflix will hate me for spilling, but asexuality will be discussed in a big way.' I'm excited about this. I'm hoping that this will be able to change the world. It's a difficult thing to know about yourself. People are asking the wrong questions.'

Kit Connor, the "Heartstopper," is backed by the cast as he claims that he was coerced to come out as Bi

Kit Connor is best known for his role in the Netflix rom-com "Heartstopper" which follows teenagers as they navigate their way through school, their emotions, and their sexual preferences. Although the series itself celebrates LGBTQ+ characters in a charming manner — giving several of them ample time to come out in their own time — many of the show's compassionate messages seem to have been lost on several, as shown by Connor's latest article. The "Rocketman" actor took to Twitter on Oct. 31 to say he is bisexual, but later said he was forced to come out after being harassed by fans. "Back for a second," the actor wrote. i'm bi. Kudos to an 18-year-old for yelling an 18-year-old to leave himself. I suspect some of you missed the point of the episode. "Bye" means "bye."

To celebrate the march's 50th anniversary, Joe Locke, Sebastian Croft, Kit Connor, Tobie Donovan, Kizzy Edgell, Corinna Brown, and Jenny Walser were among those on hand. Locke and Croft ended up blocking demonstrators from using their rainbow flags and a few lines from Whitney Houston's "Who Loves Me." The amazing moment was caught on camera and posted on Twitter. "Uhhh, I was videoing and screaming at them, but please don't be mistaken," it wasn't 'Kit Connor and the cast members,'" not 'Kit Connor and the rest of the cast," it was @joelocke03 and @SebastianCroft front and center. "They owe them for doing something so vital," he tweeted.
