‘Heated Rivalry,’ RuPaul Comedy ‘Stop! That! Train!’ and Gregg Araki’s ‘I Want Your Sex’ Top NewFest Lineup (EXCLUSIVE)

• What’s Inside:
• Drag Queen Comedy Alert!
• Gregg Araki’s Latest
• New York City’s LGBTQ+ Film Fest
• Pride Month Kicks Off!

Okay, so we just saw the lineup for NewFest, New York City’s big LGBTQ+ film festival, and wow! Get ready, because it’s going to be a good one.

RuPaul is starring in a new comedy called ‘Stop! That! Train!’, and honestly, RuPaul? That’s enough for us. Adam Shankman directed it, and it’s already sounding like a total vibe. Think bright colors, big personalities, and lots of laughs. We’re here for it.

But that’s not all. Gregg Araki is bringing us ‘I Want Your Sex’. If you know Araki’s work, you know to expect something a little edgy, a little stylish, and definitely memorable. It’s got that cool, distinct visual aesthetic he’s known for.

This festival is kicking off Pride month, which is just perfect. It’s happening at the SVA Theatre from May 28th to June 1st. And guess what? You can watch it online too, from wherever you are.

It feels like the perfect way to celebrate and support our community. We can’t wait to see what stories they have to tell.

Our Take

We’re always excited when film festivals like NewFest get announced. Especially when they have big names like RuPaul and directors with such a strong visual style like Gregg Araki. It feels like a real celebration of queer cinema and culture, and that’s something we’re always happy to support.
