The romantic comedy and drama Anything’s Possible from 2022, written by bigender screenwriter Ximena/Alvaro Garcia Lecuona, is a coming-of-age story. The film, which is directed by LGBTQ+ legend and award-winning talent Billy Porter, recounts the sweet, tender, and passionate love story of cisgender boy Khal and transgender girl Kelsa.
Anything’s Possible has a lot to unpack, from the contemporary drama to the sizzling romance to the new cast members. Everything we know about the movie is included below.
Who is in the Anything’s Possible Cast?
Eva Reign, a Black trans woman, will take the starring role of Kelsa. Reign’s first significant part in a full-length motion picture is Anything’s Possible. She had previously worked as an editor and writer for the LGBT magazine Them in New York City, but she had always desired fame.
Her conversation with Them author Michael Love Michael revealed that up to this point, her doubts and anxieties about acceptability had prevented her from pursuing her dreams.
Abubakr Ali portrays Khal, Kelsa’s love interest and ally. Ali’s acting career just started in the early 2010s with short films, therefore it is still relatively fresh. He played the role of filmmaker Raj Patel in the Riverdale spin-off Katy Keene in 2020.
Additionally, he appeared in three episodes of The Walking Dead: World Beyond in the world of The Walking Dead as a Dev. In addition to playing the main character of Hunter Rose/Grendel in the upcoming Netflix series Grendel, which will be a television series adaptation of the same-named Dark Horse comic, he also portrays the love interest in a Prime Original Movie. Post-production for Grendel is now underway.
When Is Anything’s Possible Released?
On July 22, 2022, Anything’s Possible will be made available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
The movie’s developers had to reconsider their choice to distribute the movie in theatres since they were trying to compete at the box office with a smaller budget. Porter declared that Anything’s Possible will only be available via streaming on May 17, 2022.
The History of the movie from the Backstage
Billy Porter makes his directorial debut with the full-length film Anything’s Possible. According to his interview with Variety, there is a lot of anticipation for this movie since it completely focuses on pride and queer bliss, something that very few contemporary LGBTQ+ movies have done.
Unfortunately, far too many movies that have explored LGBT issues have done so to depict tragic, traumatic, or abusive stories. Anything’s Possible is the polar antithesis of this, and Porter called it an “aspirational narrative” while describing it. It’s almost fairytale-like. We are aware of that. It’s an examination of our potential.
Readers gained rare insight into the actress’s ascent to fame, her transgender identity, and specific personal challenges in her interview with Them magazine. Reign was first shocked to find she was going to be the lead in the new movie.
Not only did she have the chance to realize her acting goals, but it also forced her to face her doubts about what the public would and would not accept in an actor. “I told myself, “I’m a Black trans girl; I’m not going to be the star in a movie,” even after I received that call. That is not practical. I’ll be fortunate to portray a buddy, “She spoke out.
