In 2000, Harold was cast as Brian Kinney, a central character on Showtime's popular gay drama Queer as Folk.ĭuring the summer hiatus from Queer as Folk, Harold made his New York theatrical debut in Uncle Bob along with George Morfogen. In his theatrical debut, Harold appeared as "Bunny" in Gillian Plowman's Me and My Friends. He was accepted into the Actors Conservatory Program with the classical theater company A Noise Within.
He dropped out of the San Francisco Art Institute and relocated to Los Angeles, where he began a three-year period of intensive drama study. In 1997, Susan Landau, daughter of actor Martin Landau, suggested Harold tries acting. He worked a variety of jobs including construction, bartender, waiter, and apprentice motorcycle mechanic. He began a Liberal Arts degree in romance literature, departing after a few months and moved to San Francisco, California to study photography at the San Francisco Art Institute. At age 15, he left the church.įollowing graduation from the Lovett School, Harold attended American University in Washington, D.C., on a soccer scholarship. Because Harold's parents were devout Pentecostals, he had strict religious upbringing. His father was an engineer and his mother a real estate agent. Now, this sounds like the best cast EVER, doesn’t it? Tell us what you think, PROVOKRs.Harold was born in Atlanta, Georgia. As for other guest stars, we would be thrilled to see Elliot Page and Elliot Fletcher who fall for each other. They would play the one who is friends with all of them and makes trouble for everyone with their seductions of all genders. In terms of new characters, Asia Kate Dillon would be a great addition to the cast. That’s obviously Cara Delevingne and Ruby Rose. Now, there are only two people in our minds that could play Lindsay and Melanie, the lesbians who have Brian’s baby. CARA DELEVINGNE AND RUBY ROSE AS LINDSAY AND MELANIE This would show a different side to Whishaw, and for that reason we would love for him to be in QAF. Ben Whishaw is the ideal candidate to play the sarcastic, sad and sometimes nasty Ted Schmidt. BEN WHISHAW AS TED SCHMIDTįorget Paddington.

The newcomer already has a Ryan Murphy series under his belt with Ratched, therefore we feel he is ready to be thrown into the mix for QAF. BRANDON FLYNN AS EMMETT HONEYCUTTīrandon Flynn would fit the “funny and sensitive” character type very well, so Emmett Honeycutt is perfect for him. The two of them at LGBTQ icons in their own right, and we would love to see them on screen together. Michael’s parents will obviously play an important role in the series, so who else would we cast than the incomparable Laverne Cox and Ricky Martin. LAVERNE COX AND RICKY MARTIN AS MICHAEL’S MOM AND HER BF Just imagine him partnered up with Hunnam as Michael. With Pose ending, we think his next home should be on QAF.
Hunnam has even expressed interest in returning to the series and to that we say “YES, PLEASE.” DYLLON BURNSIDE AS MICHAELĭyllon Burnside is on the rise. He played Nathan in the OG QAF (the Justin equivalent), but in the reboot, he should play Ben. Of course, we can’t leave Charlie Hunnam out. Give him a chance, NBC! CHARLIE HUNNAM AS BEN Based on his music videos alone, he would be a great screen actor.
Not only that, but Sivan could provide music for the show. OK, Troye Sivan and McMillan would be the picture-perfect on-screen couple, so Sivan should def play Justin Taylor. This would be the best project to introduce him to the world. The gorgeous model who is dating Zachary Quinto exudes sex appeal. Miles McMillan would be the perfect Brian Kinney. Though there is no timeline for the project, we took the liberty of casting the reboot for NBC (should they choose to keep the same characters, that is): MILES MCMILLAN AS BRIAN KINNEY This new American version would take place in New Orleans and feature a diverse cast, according to NBC. The OG British version ran from 1999-2000, and the first American series set in Pittsburgh ran for five seasons starting in 2000. Back in April, NBC announced that a reboot of Queer as Folk would hit its streaming service Peacock at some point.
