“Love, Simon” (2018)
While stories about teenagers in love and queer love stories are popular, it was rare to see a queer teenager fall in love in a major studio film at the time that “Love, Simon” was released in 2018. The film is based on the best-selling YA novel, “Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda,” following Simon Spier (Nick Robinson), a closeted high school boy, falling in love with an anonymous pen pal. While attempting to discover the mystery boy, one character uses Simon’s identity to blackmail him, pushing him to grapple with coming out to both his friends and family. “Love, Simon” was such a success that 20th Television and Hulu developed a spinoff series, “Love, Victor” in 2020, with its third season to premiere June 15 on both Hulu and Disney+.
“Love, Simon” is streaming on Hulu.
