Billy Eichner co-wrote and stars in the gay rom-com, which producers are promoting for international wide release

At the beginning of the romantic comedy “Bros,” opening today at theaters nationwide, gay podcast host Bobby Leiber explains why he rejected an offer from movie producers to write a script for a gay rom-com that “the whole world will enjoy.”

“Nick is straight and married and I’m gay,” Eichner said by phone from San Francisco, where he and actor Luke Macfarlane, who plays Bobby’s romantic counterpart Aaron Shepard in “Bros,” recently conducted press interviews. “It’s part of life, it’s part of culture,” he said. “As long as there have been humans, there have been LGBTQ people falling in love, falling out of love, having sex with each other — it’s part of the human experience and part of civilization. I think it should be taught as soon you would teach about any other culture.

Macfarlane kept his sexual orientation private until he came out in 2008 during an interview with the Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail. Last year, he starred in the Hallmark Channel’s gay Christmas movie “Single All the Way,” which is now streaming on Netflix.
