Nicholas Galitzine Says He Feels ‘Guilt’ For Portraying Queer Characters
HuffPost
The "Idea of You" actor most recently played a gay prince in “Red, White & Royal Blue.”
After rising to fame by playing queer characters in the rom-com “Red, White & Royal Blue” and the drama miniseries “Mary & George,” Nicholas Galitzine is clearing the air about his sexuality.
“I identify as a straight man,” Nicholas said in a new British GQ interview published Wednesday. “But I have been a part of some incredible queer stories.”
The actor admitted he felt torn about taking on numerous LGBTQ+ roles because of his heterosexuality.
“I felt a sense of uncertainty sometimes about whether I’m taking up someone’s space, and perhaps guilt,” he explained. “At the same time, I see those characters as not solely their sexuality.”
The “Idea of You” star went on to clarify that the characters he plays on screen are totally separate from who he is off the clock, adding, “I am Nick, and I’m not my role.”
