Will & Grace star Eric McCormack defends straight actors playing gay roles: 'It’s part of the gig'
'Will & Grace' star Eric McCormack says roles should go to the best actor regardless of their sexuality: 'There’s no part I’ve ever played where I wasn’t playing something I’m not.'
The actor, who is straight but best known for his role as gay lawyer Will Truman on the groundbreaking NBC sitcom Will & Grace, said on Monday's episode of ITV's Good Morning Britain that he believes the "best person for the role" should be cast in projects, regardless of sexuality. Created by Max Mutchnick and David Kohan, Will & Grace centered on co-dependent best friends Will, a meticulous lawyer, and Grace ( Debra Messing), a neurotic interior decorator, who share an apartment in New York.
