All are eating, drinking, and being merry, until the night takes a detour. The Boys in the Band, starring Jim Parsons, Zachary Quinto, and more, follows seven men who turn themselves into their own somewhat self-inflicted web of torture. Premiering on Netflix on September 30, 2020, this film will drop the jaws of all those who dare to press play. The best part about The Boys In The Band? Matt Bomer happens to be one of the boys.
