What happens

Bros is a 2022 American romantic comedy film starring Billy Eichner and Luke Macfarlane as two gay men in Manhattan who avoid commitment but are drawn to each other. The film is directed by Nicholas Stoller based on a screenplay he co-wrote with Eichner and is produced by Stoller, Judd Apatow, and Josh Church. Produced under Universal Pictures on a budget of $22 million, it is one of the first gay romantic comedies by a major studio that has an openly LGBTQ principal cast. Bros had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 9, 2022. Universal spent between $30–40 million marketing the film and commercially released it in theaters in the United States on September 30, 2022. The film received generally positive reviews from critics, but was a box-office bomb, grossing $14 million worldwide against a production budget of $22 million. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
