\u201cI\u2019m glad the world has finally woken up to what we\u2019ve all known for years, and I could not be more proud and happy for Johnny. I love him dearly, and he is more than deserving of this title. It\u2019s long overdue,\u201d Matt told THR<\/a>. \u201cThe fact that he\u2019s the first from the LGBTQ community makes it that much more impactful.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPart of me feels like I can\u2019t believe it\u2019s taken until 2025, but I\u2019m just grateful that we\u2019re here today,\u201d the actor continued. \u201cI think you have to put that aside and then say, hey, progress is progress, and this is phenomenal. And I\u2019m glad that Johnny was the guy. He\u2019s the perfect person to hold the mantle.\u201d<\/p>\n

In other exciting news, Matt was recently announced to be reuniting with Fellow Travelers producer Robbie Rogers<\/a> for a new Hulu YA drama pilot. <\/p>\n

Foster Dade will revolved around Foster Dade, \u201ca new transfer student at the elite Kennedy boarding school,\u201d with Matt playing Alex Tierney, \u201cthe kind of literature teacher who makes you believe books can change your life \u2014 brilliant, eccentric, and \u2018swoony,\u2019 as the kids call him. He can spot depth of soul in his students from a mile away and pulls it out of them, sometimes ruthlessly. His intensity draws people in, blurring the line between mentorship and intimacy \u2014 which lands him in the thick of the Foster Dade scandal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chloe East<\/a> was also recently announced as the female lead Annabeth, who is \u201ca popular girl at Kennedy who takes Foster under her wing.\u201d<\/p>\n
