Nicholas Galitzine Says He’s Straight, Feels “Somewhat Guilty” For Taking Gay Roles, And Is “Terrified” Of Being Defined As “A Cut Of Beef”
Nicholas Galitzine, who has played gay or queer characters, says he has felt "somewhat guilty" over the possibility of "taking up someone’s space."
The 29-year-old actor, in a recent interview with HuffPost U.K., said he thinks “there’s sort of a plethora of reasons” why he has been offered so many gay or queer roles. “One, I have so many friends within the community, and I know so many of them didn’t feel like they had these stories growing up,” he said, adding that he’s intrigued by the “underbelly of vulnerability and having to hide oneself” and that the roles have “all just been really rich characters in of themselves.” I’m not gonna ask you to cry me a river here, but it’s been difficult being part of a conversation that feels very much like I am a cut of beef at a meat market.
