A Dream Cast for a Campy Apocalypse

It’s a contemporary queer take, and we cannot wait to see it in all its campy glory. Not only is Romero tied to the project, the film also has a killer queer cast. Picture this: Jaquel Spivey (Mean Girls), Katy O’Brian (Love Lies Bleeding), Margaret Cho (Fire Island), Brigette Lundy-Paine (I Saw The TV Glow) and Cheyenne Jackson (American Horror Story) all sharing the screen.

Nina West (Rupaul’s Drag Race), Tomas Matos (Fire Island), Quincy Dunn-Baker (No Hard Feelings), Becca Blackwell (Bros), Shaunette Renée Wilson (Black Panther), Dominique Jackson (Pose), Riki Lindhome (Knives Out), and Eve Lindley (Bros) will also star.

 “This is the cast of my wildest dreams,” Romero gushed. “In a movie about survival, you gotta love and root for the survival crew. Every single person in this ensemble brings such a special and specific flavor -both on and off screen. The result is truly a magic sauce.”

So, get ready to sashay into the apocalypse with Queens of the Dead! With a killer queer cast and Tina Romero at the helm, this film promises to be a fierce and fabulous fight for survival.
