Today's Blind Items - The Director
This A+ list mostly movie actor is terrified right now that he is going to be forced out of the closet by the director he has worked with so often. The director, probably close to A list is married, but is going to come out in the next few weeks. He has already started telling those close to him and there is talk of him writing a book or at least an in depth article about his journey and that he will name some names or hint very strongly at names that he has been lovers with in the past and our A+ lister is one of those people.

Renner
Tim Burton. Depp.
Ron Howard?
Cooper/o russell
BCoop and.....
Well that's sleazy of the director to out others.
Long standing rumors of their mutual affection..
Renner is not A+ list but according to Enty,Bradley Cooper or RDJ is
steven sodenberg George Clooney
Tnx lady....!
Love the Tim B guess but he and HBC are domestic partners not married but with Enty you just never know.
David Orussell. Has been fucking Jlaw for years now.
That's what I was going to say! They've done quite a few films together...good call : )
Maybe common law marriage
Director could also be Singer
Spacey Travolta or Cruise too
I like that, Derek. There's nothing iffy about Clooney's A+ rating.
I always forget Sodenberg is married to a woman. He really gives off the gay vibe especially during interviews.
Well whoever the director is, he sounds like an asshole to me. How lovely of you to out others.
I think Singer is uh outta the closet
It will never ACTUALLY happen anyway.
Like when a famous A list actress was suppose to announce her same sex marriage
or when one of The Hills girls was suppose to come out. If enty says "in a few weeks..." don't hold your breath
David O Russel is not married
Jon Favreau is married so RDJ and Favreau...
Sorry Derek LOL
I just gathered director was writing a tell all, somehow missed that HE was coming out too!
Whatever whateverrrrrrr
Clearly this is Kevin Smith/Ben Affleck forevaaaaaaa <3
I think FrenchGirl got it.
lol--no sweat off my back ; )
@Lady H now Kevin Smith and Ben would be highlarious. Remember Mall Rats when Afflecks character was chasing around Shannon Doherty to do anal? lol
Soderberg got an Australian actress pregnant years ago when he was producing and directing a play there but Jules Asner who I thought was the shit on E! In the 90s With Steve Kmetko stayed with him..
Is Favreau A List?
Seriously asking. No shade.
Robert Downey Jr. HAS ALWAYS AND Will ALWAYS Give off a gay vibe to me. I remember watching his movies as a kid and feeling uncomfortable watching another gay man. Movies like Less than Zero and Only You.
David Fincher (he refers to a wife many times in his recent interviews for Gone Girl) and Brad Pitt
Yeah pretty sure that lawsuit outed what wasn't already common knowledge of pedosinger..
That would be beautiful, LooLoo.
or David Cronenberg and Robert Pattinson
Hey if you want to come out…fine, but leave others alone until they're ready.
That's why I was looking for a dispute or break up
Yep...first thought was Cooper and David Russell.
Steven Soderbergh and Matt Damon?
Contagion, Oceans 11, behind the Candelabra
Or Soderbergh and Clooney?
Oceans 11, Syriana, Solaris, Out Of Sight
Will smith.
@Derek: Oh Yeeeeah baby!!! Smith writes extensively about his Afflecktion for Ben and his burning desire to take in every inch of him....
I totally forgot about Trish the Dish!!! Sorry @tricia. That's my new name for you now!
I love me an epic bromance!
I think soderbergh(while excellent guess...is way above Almost A list...he has won oscars or had a zillion nominations....
Might as well throw out Favreau and Vince Vaughn.
I like the name @LH..!!! My moniker since 1st grade...(dem catholic school boys beat ya to it)..but it's a keeper!!
Scorsese and DiCaprio, of course.
LooLoo No way this it’s Fincher. Fisrt off all he’s not the kind of guy who would write a tell all book, he’s A for sure if not A+, he’s not married but he has a longtime partner whom he refers to as “my wife”. However they do look like an asexual couple.
Spielberg - Ford
Spielberg - Hanks
Spielberg - Cruise
Spielberg - Dreyfus
Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro/Leonardo DiCaprio
Christopher Nolan and Michael Caine
Steven Soderbergh and Matt Damon
Wes Anderson and Bill Murray
Both Coen Brothers and John Goodman
I agree with David Cronenberg.
But I also agree with Burton / Depp
It's just a matter of time for Blooper to out Bloop himself.
Or baz luhrmann/DiCaprio
Romeo n Juliet
Great gatsby
Love that one too @The Dish
My final guess---and I think I got this FTW---with help from Aunt Liddy
Barry Sonnenfeld who directed Will Smith in all 3 Men in Black movies and Wild Wild West. Both men are married.
Renner's not even close to A+.
A solid B+ / simple A - I'd agree with.
However, not sure if Cuesta is married again.
Cruise could be the A+ actor but who would be the director? Bird?
Also I think it actor were married, it would state it(like it did director)
So can we really expect a big name director to come out in the next few weeks? Or will nothing happen and we'll all forget about this because we have short memories/attention spans?
"Will Smith kept his Men In Black 3 director Barry Sonnenfeld on his toes while filming the new movie as he would frequently grab the filmmaker and wrestle him to the ground.
The pair has maintained a close friendship since shooting the first installment of the alien action comedy in 1997 and Smith often let loose on the set of the new sequel by messing around with Sonnenfeld whenever the cameras stopped rolling."
Soderberg Damon
Soderberg is married to the golddigger Jules Asner who used to be on E!
I can't see any director who wants to continue making movies in Hollywood threatening to name names if he decides to come out of the closet. If he is desperate for money that's another story.
And maybe the actor is an overreactor LOL.
Fincher is so private you have to be a Gary Oldman fan to know he was ever married, since Gary married his ex-wife, that Oldman then divorced in 2001.
Any more guesses??? There are probably still a few A+ actors and some close to A directors that haven't been named. I wish someone actually maintained a database of the blinds with these types of clues to see if any validity to them. In this case if a 'close to A list director' who is married comes out in the next few weeks we will have our answer (at least to half the blind which may make it easier to guess the A+ actor).
Soderbergh has a gay brother who has been out of the closet for years. This does not sound like his M.O.
@derek-RDJ has admitted to having male relationships in the past. Said he and his best friend had sex when no girls were available. Did an interview in Glamour, quite a few years back where he discussed fashion and color palettes. Not that it makes one gay, but he isn't afraid of being considered effeminate. He DOES give off a gay vibe in those movies.
I like both of Derek's guesses as well! Both totally solid!
Will Smith is definitely into the dudes. I know someone who had to sign a NDA over a decade ago...
I freaking despise people who think it is their business to out other people who aren't ready to come out. It is such a lowlife thing to do.
I'm liking @Derek's guess on this
Will Smith and Sonnenfeld - although admittedly I don't know my directors that well
Not to poo poo anyone's guesses but some of these seem so out of the question..Scorcese and Leo? No hell nah..Coen Bros? Michael Caine..Are you guys just making me laugh?
I'm with whoever said take yourself out but leave all your other friends in the closet. Just. Not. Cool.
Tom Cruise has worked with JJ Abrams a bunch, hasn't he?
Gus Van Sant and Damon?
Gus Van Sant is VERY OUT-----And he is a perv/borderline pedophile (he likes em young)
I know this is a super charged topic and I don't mean to be insensitive but do have an actual question. I'm a hetero female but have never had to 'come out' as being straight. If we want to move toward a society where partner selection doesn't matter then why does it matter if you're 'out' as gay or not? I don't care and think you should just be happy, and if you were with someone then you were with them, are part of their story and what's the big deal if they talk about it? Does that make sense?
Steve McQueen/Fassy
Scorsese/DiCaprio
@Derek, hasn't RDJ admitted to bisexuality in the past? I swear I read that somewhere. ..
@Mother Hen---unfortunatly not everyone feels that way. Its all about Box Office. Gay actors would be the kiss of death and the local Cineplex in Conservative States.
@Sherry...yes. I know for an absolute fact that Leo likes the boys.
@LK--I was not aware but according to Cheryl he fucked his guy friends when no one was around and has a flair for design lol *shrug*. His wife must be a hella secure --and I am sure those50 million dollar paychecks he brings home do not hurt....
Dammit Cheryl, I really need to scroll all the way down before commenting...lol
At least I was right!
I like the Will Smith guess.
How about Joel Schumacher for the director?
Clooney for the actor?
I'm now re-thinking that it could be Will Smith. I don't think Scorsese would throw Leo under the bus.
I'm thinking maybe Will Smith/Peter Berg. Peter Berg is kinda cute.
Fincher and Spacey.
Yes, we all know about Spacey, but a book confirming it probably wouldn't be welcomed.
BTW, House of Cards rocked. I binged all 26 episodes in about 3 days
Crila, I agree on Leo and the boys it was Scorcese that got me. I can never see him as gay. Not in a million.
I think the only way to figure this out is to decide what A+ actor would freak out?
RDJ-no.
Depp-no.
Clooney-no.
Affleck-maybe.
Cruise-yes.
Smith-yes.
Hanks-yes.
@Sherry---I can never see Scorcese as almost A list though
@Sherry...gotcha. I agree. I changed my answer to Will Smith and one of his directors.
Now my time to say I know that Berg PROBABLY isn't gay. I worked with him years ago. Never pinged my 'dar.
The actors who are rumored to likey the boys.
1. Will Smith
2. Leo D
3. George Clooney
4. Tom Cruise
Actors who have had rumors about diddling around with men.
1. Affleck
2. Brad Pitt (he did it to further his career...and it broke my heart.)
3. Matt Damon (it pains me to say it)
Schumacher's been out since WWII...
Soderbergh strikes me as possible. He "retired" from directing movies and is currently working as the cinematographer and editor on Magic Mike XXL. Which is odd to say the least unless you're a gay guy who wants to look at pictures of nude guys and then carefully edit out their full-frontals..
Possibilities on the A+ list (who have all worked with Soderbergh and who have all had gay rumors - however unlikely - about them): Damon, Pitt, Clooney, McConaughey, Tatum
One of those guys.
I have to laugh at the posters who are indignant about the director outing an actor when the director isn't out yet and hasn't outed anyone.
In any case, I have very little sympathy for multimillionaire closet cases.
@IJU, I'm thinking of watching House of Cards. Love Kevin!
@dexamyl, don't laugh at the posters, laugh at the person who came up with this very creative BI that sounds straight out of UNCENSORED magazine (motto: all the names... all the facts; headline: Toronto: New World Capital for Homos - I wish I was making that up but it was a real headline!).
@seven---wtf lol---what year is that from
It says "mostly movie actor" not "iffy A+"....Clooney...Straight up.
Do it Seven. It is an intense show, but riveting.
I've always liked Spacey but I've never liked Robin Wright, ever, but I did in that show. It's very good.
Is Jackman considered A+? Haven't seen him mentioned. What about Baz and Jackman?
I suppose. Matt Bomer is so beautiful though and everyone still loves him! Just a thought. :)
Dennis Villeneuve for Director
Jake G for the actor
Ryan Gosling/Nicolas Winding Refn
Gosling/Refn is a great guess
Crila...Like your last post..Makes perfect sense.
Now THIS is interesting
David Cronenberg and Viggo Mortensen.
Although my guess was baz lurham/ Leo half a day ago lol..
I'm throwing in guy ritchie/ Jason stratham
Sherlock Holmes 1/2
Revolver
Snatch
Lock stock n 2 smoking barrels
I always got a strong gay vibe from rdj. I could see him having an arrangement with Susan. Seems like they have a close relationship even if it is Platonic, which is nice. Not sure coming out would hurt they guy though. People love him
Just looked it up. He said it at one point and backtracked saying he manufactured the rumo . To add a new name, Will Smith? He still qualify A even?
Viggo wouldnt care, it would fit in with his freeballing life.
Has Cooper worked with one director often?
Christopher Nolan and any of the dozens of males he uses in every single fucking movie of his?
Totally agree Renoblondee. It's obviously taken person in question to come to terms with, and garner the courage to come out. Definitely not his place however to do so for others who are not at the sane point as him. Really lousy.
*same
Tricia: better than my appellation in primary school. Due to being tall, and because it rhymed, I was titled Rebecca Double Decker. Mean!
It's definitely Baz Luhrmann.
If Luhrmann is coming out as gay and has started reaching out to the people close to him, I find it hard to believe that nobody had suspected anything.
Come on, he directed Moulin Rouge, and among the things that are less flamboyantly gay than Moulin Rouge, there is:
- a Cher video
- Richard Simmons
- a Gay Pride float for the San Francisco bear community
- the soundtrack for Can't Stop the Music by The Village People (or the DVD)
- the cast of a Broadway show
- a Republican Senator in an airport men's restroom
- a cockring shaped as a teddy bear saying "Yep, I'm gay"
- ice skating
- Big Gay Al
- Ryan Murphy
Spielberg, Burton, Scorsese, Soderburg are A and A+++++ without any question. Can't be them. In world of directors, of gen pop knows them from more than one film, that's getting close to A. Knows them well? That's A.
@Mother Hen - How can you be so daft? Have you ever feared for your life by holding hands in public with your partner? When that isn't a big deal, then coming out won't be a big deal. Good grief. You should really try to educate yourself a bit before spouting nonsense from your place of privilege. You're like a white person who says she/he is 'colorblind' and hey, there's racism solved!
Zach Snyder\Henry Cavill
I doubt Depp, RDJ, or Clooney would be terrified. They all seem pretty chilled out.
DiCaprio? He's extremely careful about his public image. I can definitely see him panicking about this. The director isn't Scorsese though. It's Luhrmann.
