I Love You Phillip Morris at Queer Lounge
January 19, 2009
Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor joined us at Queer Lounge this afternoon to hold the official press conference for their new film, I Love You Phillip Morris. The movie, which casts Carrey and McGregor as lovers and soul mates, has already received a ton of industry buzz before its premiere last night.
Though Carrey and McGregor are the stars of the film, actor Rodrigo Santoro, who plays Carrey’s other lover, joined the two at the table. Also in attendance: producer Andrew Lazar, screenwriter/director John Requa, director Glenn Ficarra and Europa Corp’s Luc Besson.
glaadBLOG is proud to present the press conference in its entirety. Please enjoy the five-part video and share it with your friends!
