When Dino Fetscher was a baby-faced 19 years old he was named Mr Gay Uk, now 15 years later he is starring in the second season of the hit Apple TV+ series Foundation.
The out gay actor plays Glawen Curr on this intergalactic sci-fi series about humans living under the rule of the Galactic Empire. In the sophomore season of the hit show, Fetscher’s character reunites with his husband General Bel Riose (played by Ben Daniels) who thought Glawen was dead.
“It was so refreshing that our characters’ sexualities were just incidental,” the 35-year-old actor told Attitude. “It wasn’t the event; the event was everything we had to accomplish, the conflicts around the empire, our reuniting, and the trauma of everything that happened.”
The Welsh star said he was inspired by the way sexuality is treated on the show. “I’ve played a lot of queer roles so, when approaching Glawen, it was really curious for that not to be something I had to dig into,” he explained. “In this world, sexuality is very different. It’s just the same as you have blue eyes and I have brown eyes. In lots of ways, it’s really inspiring because it’s not so far in the future. That’s where I hope we get to. There’s a whole plethora of other shit going on in this world, but at least they got that right!”
The actor, who has also starred in Gentleman Jack and Cucumber, got candid about what he thinks of straight actors taking on queer roles. “It’s really important for young queer kids to see a queer character and then to find out that actor is queer in real life,” Fetscher said. “It’s really empowering. Or for a trans kid to see a trans actor playing a trans role, and then they might be able to look up to them; those things are really powerful.”
But he also admitted that there are going to be times when a queer role will got to a non-LGBTQ+ actor. “I think for the actors who aren’t queer playing queer roles, there’s certainly a respect that needs to be had there, and an understanding and a sensitivity around it.
Beyond being a talented, well-spoken actor—who was even nominated as the Celebrity Rising Star at the 2017 British LGBT Awards—he’s also a total hunk!
