It's called Acting. You don't need the person to be what the character is, in order to play them. This is why people win awards for it. Daniel Day Lewis isn't and never will be Abe Lincoln, yet he still portrayed him quite well.

I am sorry but its acting. This SJW bs needs to stop.

By this logic no gay actor should be allowed to play straight character. And Harry is BI.

The issue is that there are less opportunities for gay actors as casting agents are less likely to cast a known gay actor in a straight role. So I guess the argument here is this is a rare opportunity to advance the career of a lgbtiq+ Identifying actor that’s been given to a “straight” actor.

However, with that said, it is improving and on-screen / off-screen representation is on the increase.

I can confirm he's bi.

So, basically I lied and can't confirm anything. But, also, here's an unpopular opinion: Louis is my favorite.

Exactly this. Harry is just another straight white man who gets a role because of his popularity and not his acting chops. But hey, maybe I'll change my mind on him after I watch the film.

He's literally never said he was straight... like can you not? :ohwut_gaga_sunglasses_shocked_surprised_what_huh: He's ******** ambiguous. He's said it many times. Stop giving people false labels.
