Drew Starkey calls 'Queer' sex scenes 'ultimate form of communication' and says 'it's as present as you can be with another person.'

The role has prompted people to wonder about Starkey’s sexuality and whether he’s discussed it in real life. So, is Drew Starkey queer in real life? Has he come out as gay? No, Drew Starkey has not identified as a member of the LGBTQ+ community.

In his new film 'Queer,' Drew Starkey had to get more intimate than ever. Now he's speaking about what it was like creating those sex scenes.

A steamy, surrealist adaptation of William S Burroughs’s lurid, semiautobiographical novel documenting gay expat life in 1950s Mexico, Queer also sees Starkey stumble through the streets of Mexico City tipsy on mezcal and perform modern dance with Craig while stark naked and tripping out on ayahuasca in the middle of the jungle.
