Ewan mcgregor is gay
Should gay roles be portrayed only by gay actors? Or is all fair in Love and Hollywood? But should critics have something negative to say about this choice of casting, considering a gay man Murphy chose to cast McGregor in this role. Billy Porter the only openly gay black actor to win a prime time Emmy for a lead role has said that he has been turned down for gay roles numerous times throughout his career while straight actors were able to book those roles with ease and be awarded for them.
The thing that Ewan got about Halston was that Halston had a vision in his mind of who he wanted to be in life. He was self-created. McGregor is standing by his choice to take on the role of the designer. McGregor has stepped in the shoes of gay characters on several occasions throughout his career.

His fame and success led him to live a life of sex, drugs and rock and roll. He died at the age of 57 due to AIDS related complications. Will you be tuning in? For some reason, a gay actor playing a straight one is not so hot. Newsflash: The actors playing serial killers, cops, lawyers, superheroes, monsters, aliens, or soldiers are not really serial killers, cops, lawyers, superheroes, monsters, aliens, or soldiers.
They are acting. Stop promoting the nonsense that they must only act as themselves. One thing I DO feel strongly about is that transgender roles should only be played by trans actors.
