\n\tFrench adult animated comedy\u00a0Jim Queen<\/em>, which world premiered in\u00a0Cannes Film Festival\u2018s Midnight Screenings\u00a0program, mixes comedy and serious themes. It tells the story of a ripped queer influencer and \u201cking of the Gym Queens\u201d community whose world crumbles when he contracts a mysterious virus that turns gay men in Paris into heterosexuals. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe virus is called Heterosis. The titular Jim, whose full name is Jim Parfait, is voiced by Alex Ramir\u00e8s, with J\u00e9r\u00e9my Gillet\u00a0being the voice of Lucien, a closeted\u00a0virgin who helps him on the hunt for a rumored cure to heal Jim and save the whole LGBTQIA+ community. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a tribute to the queer community, the film also features recognizable names from it, including\u00a0singer Philippe Katerine, drag performer La Brioch\u00e9e and gay porn icon Fran\u00e7ois Sagat, who voices Jim\u2019s rival, Pavel.<\/p>\n

\nJim Queen<\/em> was created by Nicolas Athan\u00e9 and Marco Nguyen in their feature directorial debut. They co-wrote the script with Simon Balteaux and Brice Chevillard. David Alric and Arthur Delabays of French animation studio Bobbypills (Creature Commandos<\/em>) produced the movie, for which Global Constellation is handling sales.<\/p>\n

\n\tSo, how did a French gay porn actor end up in Jim Queen<\/em> as the nemesis of the titular character? \u201cWe needed the actors to be part of the community to understand the characters,\u201d Nguyen tells THR<\/em>, highlighting the team\u2019s focus on authenticity. \u201cIt was important for them to put their stories, their experiences into the characters that we created.\u201d Sagat is \u201cmore than a porn actor, he is an icon. He became so famous that it was impossible to think that he wouldn\u2019t be part of the project,\u201d he adds. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe creative team wasn\u2019t sure if he would go for the casting offer, though. \u201cWe were afraid that he wouldn\u2019t accept the role of Pavel, because it\u2019s so self-deprecating, and it requires a lot of derision,\u201d explains Nguyen. \u201cWe talk about steroids and Botox and everything in a very cartoony way. But he accepted. And he was hilarious doing it, and he was super happy to play this part, because he knew it was a caricature of himself. And it was very, very fun to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIt helped that Nguyen knew some of the people who ended up as voice performers in Jim Queen<\/em>. \u201cMarco knew Fran\u00e7ois Sagat and Harald Marlot who plays Glamydia,\u201d shares Athan\u00e9. \u201cThat really helped, because they came. They were like, \u2018Oh, Marco is doing something? I want to see what is going on.\u2019 So that helped a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n
