Are you ready to watch Luke Evans and Billy Porter — or rather their characters — as a couple? Duh. Well, then we have good news and bad news. The actors do indeed star as a couple in the upcoming drama Our Son, however bad news, this movie looks to be a heartbreaker, albeit an important one.

In the film, according to the official synopsis, “Nicky (Evans), a book publisher devoted to his work, lives with his husband Gabriel (Porter), a former actor and stay-at-home dad, and their eight-year-old son, Owen. Gabriel loves Owen more than anything; Nicky loves Gabriel more than anything. Despite appearances, Gabriel has been dissatisfied with their marriage for some time and files for divorce, leading to a custody battle that forces both of them to confront the changing reality of their love for each other and for their son.”

While we love to focus on queer joy, break-ups, and the break-up of families are also sadly a part of real life, and who better to bring it to the screen than these two powerhouse, out actors.
Our Son arrives in select theaters on Dec 8 and digitally on Dec 15. Watch the trailer below and weep along with us.
