Wentworth Miller On Coming Out & Pressure To Stay Closeted In Hollywood

about his decision to come out publicly as gay and why he still feels it\'s difficult to be an openly gay actor in Hollywood.

“It was a long road. I did it in my own way. And my own time,” he says. When I was ready: emotionally, mentally, spiritually. When I had a support system in place. I think that’s critical. To lay a solid foundation first and then make the big life decision.”

Speaking on the pressure for actors to stay closeted in Hollywood, he shares:

“I don’t think the average exec decides not to hire openly gay actors because they hate gay people. Hollywood is a business. It’s corporate. It’s about profit,” he says.

“And if I’m an exec and I’m trying to please my corporate masters, and guarantee a big opening weekend – and you only get one shot at the box office – and I want to keep a roof over my head and I have to choose between hiring a straight actor for the lead in my movie and an actor who’s openly gay, I’m going to go with straight actor because I don’t want to risk alienating various demographics.”
