It's also my dream to play a superhero. When I was a kid, I was obsessed with them. I related to them so well because, let's be honest, a superhero basically lives his or her life in the closet. They have a daytime persona, whether it's Clark Kent or Peter Parker or Bruce Wayne, who is completely separate from their superhero persona, and nobody gets to know both people at once. Their second identity is something they believe they have to keep hidden. It's their big secret. In a weird way, when I was a kid, I felt like a little gay superhero. It would be a dream to play the first gay superhero on the big screen. Marvel, are you listening? -- As told to Alyssa Roenigk
