The secret love affair between Tab Hunter and Anthony Perkins is getting the Hollywood treatment!!!
For decades, the gay love affair between heartthrobs Tab Hunter and Anthony Perkins was one of Hollywood’s best and simultaneously worst kept secrets.
Their romance was officially confirmed by Hunter in his 2005 bestselling memoir, Tab Hunter Confidential: The Making of a Movie Star.
Now, it’s being made into a movie. Tab & Tony is being produced by Zachary Quinto and J.J. Abrams. Doug Wright, who won a Pulitzer Prize for his Tony-winning play I Am My Own Wife, has been tapped to pen the screenplay. Allan Glaser, Hunter’s longterm partner and producer of the 2015 documentary Tab Hunter Confidential, will also help produce the biopic. The movie was only just announced and Twitter is already making casting suggestions:
