He’s stealing scenes in the new movie Weapons and his hot dog moment is already legendary, but there’s more to Clayton Farris than meets the eye. The actor and social media star joins Newsweek’s H. Alan Scott to talk about his viral fame on and off the big screen.  

Most importantly, Clayton opens up about a major misconception. While audiences are watching him and thinking he's a straight guy playing a gay character, he's here to correct a few things, and talk more broadly about what it’s like to be a working queer actor.
