Over on the Tumblr I just posted a few shots of Jude Law and Aidan Gillen on the set of Guy Ritchie's upcoming King Arthur movie titled Knights of the Roundtable and it struck me as I did that I had no idea until now that Aidan Gillen was in this movie -- this movie which stars Charlie Hunnam as King Arthur -- yes the same Charlie Hunnam whose butt Aidan Gillen once vigorously swaddled.
All my life I've wanted the inside scoop (ha, context) on this scene - how they filmed it, et cetera - but I've never found much info. The cutting back and forth makes me think that's not really Charlie Hunnam's rump that Aidan's familiarizing himself with, and that is an awful lot to ask of your actors. But as far as I know they've never really talked about it explicitly. And yes clearly I have spent a lot of time thinking about this scene. Come on, Russell T Davies!
Anyway last fall was the 15th anniversary of the original (and vastly superior to its American remake) Queer as Folk and I whined a bit about there not being any reunion, so I will take this, for the time being. There's no word on IMDb who Aidan is playing. He and Charlie had better have some scenes together! (And yes obviously I mean that Aidan had better drop his armor and receive what he's been owed in return all these fifteen years.)

You heard Russell t. Davies has a new show called Cucumber Banana? It's a queer show and it is soooooo good, and the show does not fuck around with gay sex scenes.
I love how much you love that Queer gif. (I love it, too!)
Aiden Gillen is presumably straight so i wonder if that was hard for him to actually pay so much devotion (like full-on licking) to Dat Ass.
Kind of a reductive question, I know, but you see actors get so much flack or end up being so defensive when doing so much less.
