I agree with the 'best actor for the role' BUT it's the often accompanied narrative about how straight actors are brave for taking LBGT roles that irks me. Also the stat that 59 LGBT roles have been Oscar nominated and only one of them was actually a LGBT actor makes you think.

I think the next time they cast a Wookie in Star Wars it needs to be played By a wookie. Fair is fair.

I don't care who gets the role, just give it justice. CMBYN and God's Own Country were played by straight actors.

What about the fabulous Andrew Scott playing the straight Priest in Fleabag? You give it to the best actor for the job not based on sexuality.
