PREMIUM SPOTLIGHT ON PERIOD SET GAY ROMANCE SERIES FELLOW TRAVELERS WITH MATT BOMER AND JONATHAN BAILEY

 FELLOW TRAVELERS SERIES 

GIVES JONATHAN BAILEY AND MATT BOMER AN EPIC ROMANCE

Fellow Travelers starts this month

Unlike September which was dry as Sahara, month of October will bring us some new shows or new seasons of the ones we already love and among them is brand new period set series FELLOW TRAVELERS which gives Matt Bomer and Jonathan Bailey and epic romance spanning decades. This eight episode series will start streaming on Showtime's channel on Paramount Plus October 27th and then also on the linear Showtime from October 29th. This epic love story and political thriller is a small screen adaptation of Thomas Mallon’s novel. This is one of the rare examples where gay characters are played by gay actors: as you know Bomer has a husband and children with him, while Bailey has been in a relationship with British star Hugh Skinner for a few years now.

  IN THE FELLOW TRAVELERS SERIES

It will be an eight episode series

Matt Bomer plays charismatic Hawkins Fuller, who maintains a financially rewarding, behind-the-scenes career in politics. Hawkins avoids emotional entanglements until he meets Tim Laughlin (Jonathan Bailey), a young man who’s brimming with idealism and religious faith. They begin a romance just as Joseph McCarthy and Roy Cohn declare war on “subversives and sexual deviants,” initiating one of the darkest periods in 20th-century American history. Over the course of four decades, we follow our five main characters – Hawk, Tim, Marcus (Jelani Alladin), Lucy (Allison Williams) and Frankie (Noah J. Ricketts) – as they cross paths through the Vietnam War protests of the 1960s, the drug-fueled disco hedonism of the 1970s and the AIDS crisis of the 1980s while facing obstacles in the world and within themselves.
