Dylan o brien gay sex scenes

It was also so beautifully written by James and I never wanted to change a word of it from the first time I read it. James, this film feels personal, as you wrote and directed it and also star in it. Sweeney: It creates a liminal awareness. That was one where I did feel the strain between actor and director and being able to compartmentalize those two sides of my responsibilities.

We really want as many people as we can to go see it. Sweeney: I think [Dylan] got more respect out of the situation than I did. Dylan O’Brien ’s new film, Twinless, made its debut at the Sundance Film Festival on January 23, and the Teen Wolf star’s leaked gay sex scene from the movie has gotten fans excited in.

And that was tough. But it found itself the talk of the internet when a scene from one of its films, Twinless, leaked online. And my boyfriend, who is an identical twin, had recently broken up with me and that kind of spurred some childhood memories of wishing I had a twin.

I think when I first heard about a twin support group, it did strike me as such a profound, deeply tragic loss because it is also about a loss of self, and that just felt like a really robust theme to explore in a film. How are you navigating that line during this press tour?

This came from being very interested in twins and their psychology and identity. Sweeney: The heavier moments are more challenging — they feel like they ask more of me emotionally. How did you approach that scene emotionally? O'Brien's gay sex scene from 'Twinless' is all over social media once again, but there's an upshot for one of the best films of the year.

You try to look on the bright side and maybe, at least, it points people in the direction of our film. The film, out September 5 after premiering to buzzy acclaim at Sundance and not without controversythanks to a leaked sex scene that derailed its digital runis one of those rare cinematic experiences that hits like a jolt: unsettling, hilarious, devastating and tender, sometimes all at once.

When a sex scene from the film was leaked online, causing Sundance to quickly remove the entire film from its digital roster, what did that feel like to go through in real time? As it turns out, that question is one of many the duo navigated with humor, honesty and surprising vulnerability.

I just thought it was so human and beautifully written in that way.

What sparked your creativity here? Even offering a brief summary feels like revealing too much. In fact, this interview contains some light spoilers, so consider yourself warned. Dylan, you also have a powerful scene, where you tell Dennis what you wish you could say to your late twin brother.
