As some of you know, I spent a solid third of the past year working on a movie-length video essay about David Tennant. At the same time, I was also coming to terms with my own identity as nonbinary and bisexual, and it ended up playing a crucial role in me finally working up the courage to come out to my parents. Do I think David is queer? This can especially be seen through his Shakespeare characters, such as Richard, Hamlet, and some would argue Benedick as well.

When I was 15 I played Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet, who I chose to play as a closeted young gay man harboring an unrequited crush on Romeo. I think I saw this role subconsciously as an outlet for my own repressed queerness, both of gender and sexuality, as I had experienced an unrequited crush on my female best friend the previous year which I was still in denial about. I believe that what matters to David more than anything is being a husband and a father.

I believe he adores Georgia and his children and would not do anything in the world that he believes would jeopardize his family. And besides, if David were cheating on Georgia, he really would not be the person I thought he was. So many queer people see themselves in David and his characters, and that is beautiful.
