This looks so good! I’m still wondering what happened between Will and Adam McKay….

If you read the article about it, it just sounds like Adam McKay is a shitty friend who doesn't know how to communicate? Which is fairly typical for a lot of dudes, unfortunately.

That sucks. I wasn’t sure if it was a build up or one off.

Sadly I’ve had a couple of close friendships that ended quickly so I try to understand both sides.

I definitely do just think it’s that he wanted to make “serious” movies and Will was a bit lost with what he wanted for the next era of his career. their production company had already basically started to be divided in the years after Vice. and then McKay kinda screwed him over by casting John C. Reilly in the lead role in Winning Time which Will really wanted and had until McKay changed his mind without telling him. and then he didn’t even tell Will, John C. Reilly had to be the guy to do it.

and then the company ended for real, Will hasn’t talked to McKay in years. should make the SNL50 reunion interesting…

May the Universe give good things to this man(!) who supported his friend. I have a friend who came out as trans later in life and the people closest to her who weren't supportive unfortunately was a lot. :(

Looking forward to this for many reasons but also it's directed by the guy who did Barb & Star so I'm thrilled from a non topical perspective!

I’m glad that Harper has Will as an ally. I think Will will go into the fire with Harper (as much as he can) when people start being hateful.

this made me tear up yesterday. Harper Steele is a legit SNL legend lol, if it made you laugh she probably wrote it!
