Is Michael Cimino gay?
Michael Cimino identifies as straight, although he has previously played gay characters, with the titular character of the TV series Love, Victor as an example.
He was interviewed by Attitude about his Love, Victor role and opened up about his experiences in its wake:
“I’ve definitely had some criticism from the LGBT community for being in the role… I’ve had death threats, which is horrible. But the show is important to me. The messages of hate — I came into it knowing that would happen, regardless of how good I was.”
He added: “But there are some straight actors who play gay characters, who are all about supporting LGBT rights while they’re promoting their project, but once they’re done, a year later, it’s kind of forgotten.”
The 23-year-old American actor argued “That’s not how [to] be an ally, that’s not how you support LGBT rights. If you’re not an actual ally, then what are you doing?”
