In a new interview with Rolling Stone, the actor-singer stresses that his new same-sex romantic drama is not as gay as it sounds

largely follows suit, dropping such bombshells as “It’s okay to be flawed … I make mistakes sometimes,” “If I have kids at some point, I’ll encourage them to be themselves,” and, on taking up therapy, that “So many of your emotions are so foreign before you start analysing them properly.” Well, if you were Harry Styles, why would you go any deeper than that in a public forum?

When the conversation shifts to his burgeoning film career, however, Styles is somewhat more drawn on the subject of sexuality – and does himself few favours. The occasion for his increased candour is My Policeman, a British prestige drama set to premiere at Toronto next month: Styles plays the lead role of a closeted gay cop in 1950s Brighton, who begins a relationship with a man while marrying the woman who has fallen for him.

The more you stress love, however, the less you have to think about sex – which is, of course, the key sticking point for many an anti-queer bigot. Styles soft-soaps this point, too, in the service of playing up the supposed universality of this gay romance: “I think everyone, including myself, has your own journey with figuring out sexuality and getting more comfortable with it.
