Wentworth Miller no volverá a 'Prison Break' porque ya no quiere interpretar a hombres heterosexuales

Adiós a Michael Scofield. O eso ha prometido Wentworth Miller, el actor que protagonizó 'Prison Break' de 2005 a 2009 y en el revival de 2017, que no volverá a interpretar al personaje porque no quiere dar vida a más hombres heterosexuales.

El actor (y guionista de la muy buena 'Stoker'), que anunció su homosexualidad en 2013, ha escrito un post en Instagram sobre la negatividad en las redes sociales en el que ha asegurado que está "oficialmente" fuera de la serie: "No por el ruido de las redes sociales (aunque eso ha centrado el problema). Simplemente no quiero interpretar personajes heterosexuales. Sus historias ya han sido contadas (y mucho)".

"Así que. No más Michael", continúa Miller. "Si eras fan de la serie y esperabas temporadas adicionales... entiendo que esto sea decepcionante. Lo siento. Si te has enfadado y molestado porque te enamoraste de un hombre heterosexual ficticio interpretado por un hombre real gay... Eso es cosa tuya".

"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. ????
