Tom Blyth on Playing a Closeted Gay Cop in ‘Plainclothes’ and His ‘Intimate, Really Vivid’ Sex Scenes With Russell Tovey
Tom Blyth talks about playing a closeted gay cop in 'Plainclothes' and his sex scenes with co-star Russell Tovey.
Tom Blyth may have starred in Francis Lawrence’s box office hit “The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes,” but that doesn’t mean the British actor is moving on from independent film. Case in point: “ Plainclothes.” In writer-director Carmen Emmi’s feature debut, Blyth stars as Lucas, an undercover cop in 1990s Syracuse, N.Y., who falls in love with Andrew ( Russell Tovey), one of his targets in a sting operation going after gay men for public indecency in a mall bathroom. Sometimes I feel they’re called in when the scene isn’t even that intimate just because everyone these days is rightfully trying to correct the course and make sure that everyone’s protected.
