.. Check out the highlights from the interview: On being in the running to be the next James Bond : “I was like, ‘Wow, this is like crazy that I’m on this list.
’ I took stock that day and I thought...
people could see me as that role even being a gay man, which I thought was great, and it means that we are progressing. I wouldn’t turn [James Bond] down. I’ve still got some years left in me to do stunts and shoot a gun and wear a tuxedo.
I do look quite good in a tuxedo, even if I do say it myself.” On being an out public figure : “I take it as a real honor and a responsibility to be who I am in the public and to send out a message of hope and inspiration. You can be whatever you want, and it doesn’t come easy.
But nothing about who you are in your heart and your soul should have any effect on where you wanna go and who you want to be.” On his relationship with his partner, Fran Tomas : “He’s a great human being. He’s the best part of me for sure.
He’s kind, calm. He’s happy. He’s positive.
He’s a hard worker. He literally makes me a better person. And he has to put up with my shit, which, I can’t imagine what that would be like.
We’re best friends. We travel together. We work together, we work on the [ BDXY fashion] brand together.
And we’re building a life together. We’re happy and I’m very grateful that I’ve met that person.” Read all about the new role that Luke just landed in a Prime Video series!.
