The Queerty Interview brings you conversations with the most exciting LGBTQ+ voices in entertainment, activism, and beyond.
In this episode, we sit down with actors Russell Tovey and Tom Blyth to talk about Plainclothes—one of the most thrilling (and frankly hottest) queer films of the year.
Set in the ’90s in upstate New York, the film follows a young, closeted cop, played by Blyth, who is part of a team of undercover officers tasked with targeting and arresting cruising gay men. But when he unexpectedly falls for a target, played by Tovey, he risks it all for a chance at connection.
Part romance, part psychological thriller, Plainclothes is a stunning showcase for both actors—especially Blyth, who audiences may recognize from The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
In our conversation, the pair share what drew them to the project, how they built their on-screen chemistry, and why Tovey believes this period piece offers an urgent and timely message for today’s queer audiences.
