Will & Grace star Eric McCormack defends straight actors playing gay roles: ‘It’s part of the gig’

VIA EW.com:

Eric McCormack is weighing in on straight actors playing LGBTQ+ roles.

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.

“That’s a tough one for me, because I didn’t become an actor so that I could play an actor,” McCormack said when asked about his thoughts on the subject. “There’s no part I’ve ever played where I wasn’t playing something I’m not. It’s part of the gig. And I’ve always said, if gay actors weren’t allowed to play straight actors, Broadway would be over.”

The actor continued, “So this is what we do. I’d like to think that I represent it well. I came from the theater, and one of my best friends was a gay man. So I think I took their spirit and their message in what was otherwise just a sitcom and, represented it, I hope.”

Does McCormack think he would be cast if the sitcom were made today? “Well, I guess the answer would be, they’d have to say in the casting room, ‘And you’re gay, right?’ which I don’t think they can say,” he responded. “I would like to think in general that the best person for the role, the one that comes in and knocks it out of the park, is the one that gets the part.”

Hollywood legend Rita Moreno shares details of her Oscar night with the hosts of “The Talk”


EGOT winner Rita Moreno visits “The Talk” and dishes on all things Oscars. She says, “You know, somebody said I looked like Betty Boop, and I think they’re right. I decided to do an homage to Chita Rivera…I felt so gorgeous.” She goes on to share stories about backstage and after party meetups. “I ran into Melissa McCarthy, and she started to tear up, and she held me, and she said I cannot tell you how much I admire you and love you and she went on and on…you don’t think of yourself like that, you really don’t. I mean, unless you’re an ego nut, which I’m not. And then the other amazing experience, we went to the Vanity Fair party…He [Lenny Kravitz] was all by himself at one of the bars, and I went up to him and I said, ‘Hello, I’m Rita Moreno,’ and I couldn’t get any farther before he went to his knees [Moreno grabs her chest]. And he stayed there, and he kissed my hand, and he said if I never meet anyone else that I love in my life, you’re the one, I mean, I was just, amazing.”
