Prison Break Star Wentworth Says He Wants To Play Gay Roles After Coming Out

Prison Break star Wentworth Miller has revealed that he is no longer comfortable with playing straight roles.

He says straight people’s stories have told over and over again so it is about time he changes the narrative.

“I just don’t want to play straight characters. Their stories have been told (and told).”

Taking to his Instagram page, he says he is sorry if anyone fell in life with the character Michael he played in Prison Break and if they have a problem that a gay man played it, it is their problem.

He wrote;

If you’re hot and bothered bec you fell in love with a fictional straight man played by a real gay one…That’s your work. – W.M.”

He says he would not be bullied on social media to be what he is not.

I’m not concerned about myself. I can’t be “bullied” in this space. I have too much power. “Delete. Block. Deactivate.” Etc.

“This is my favorite IG account,” someone wrote in response to a recent post. Thank you. I want you to know I saw that. I see the positive comments and DMs (a lot of them anyway). Affectionate. Supportive. Appreciated (by me). Obviously there are comments and DMs I appreciate less. Who are these people? On my page? What backwards-ass, Stone Age values country did they crawl out of? The U.S.? I won’t be disappearing (too many cool things to repost). The ability to comment likely will. I’m not concerned for myself. I can’t be “bullied” in this space. I have too much power. “Delete. Block. Deactivate.” Etc. But I take seriously the possibility of queer kids visiting here, recently out of the closet or exploring the idea… I don’t want them exposed to bullshit. On a related note… I’m out. Of PB. Officially. Not bec of static on social media (although that has centered the issue). I just don’t want to play straight characters. Their stories have been told (and told). So. No more Michael. If you were a fan of the show, hoping for additional seasons… I understand this is disappointing. I’m sorry. If you’re hot and bothered bec you fell in love with a fictional straight man played by a real gay one… That’s your work. – W.M. 🏳️‍🌈
