As the Hollywood Reporter reports, the actor Jim Parsons, known for Sheldon Cooper in Sitkom "The Big Explosion Theory, will take part in the creation of a documentary series for HBO Max, which will be devoted to turning points and landlines in the history of LGBT movement in the United States. The partner of Parsons to develop this project will perform a screenwriter and producer Greg Bilanti. The series was called Equal ("Equal").
The project will consist of their four parts. Each of the episodes duration about an hour will tell about those events in the history of sexual minorities, which for some reason did not receive due publicity. The series will be distinguished by high-class historical reconstructions, as well as a demonstration of inaccessible video materials. In addition, a number of Pioneers LGBTK + will appear in the film, including Harry Hay, "Daughters Bilitis", Christine Jorgensen and Bayard Rastin. The fourth episode will be fully dedicated to Stonewall Bunts, as well as the first Prade in the history.
In June, we celebrated the fifty-year anniversary of Stonewall Buntes, which marked the beginning of a new epoch in the history of sexual minorities. Let the common canvas of these events are known, but we still have to find out about the many studies of patriots, arts and thinkers who contributed to the development of LGBTK +. It is time to share these stories,
- Jennifer O'Connell said, responsible in HBO Max for documentary projects.
The choice of Parsons and Bilanti as the main authors of the new project was not unrestracted, since both openly recognize their belonging to LGBT. The date of the output of "equal" is not yet reported.
