'That was a time in the industry when something like that could still really be weaponised against you,' he explained.
The Normal Heart, as well as the TV show Fellow Travelers – has said he was in the running for the lead role in DC’s scrapped film Superman : Flyby in the early 2000s.
While Matt came out as gay publicly in 2012, he himself is unsure of the exact circumstances around how he was outed earlier in his career, though believes it contributed to him missing out on the role. He continued: “That was a time in the industry when something like that could still really be weaponised against you. How, and why, and who, I don’t know.”Matt even left his role playing Ben Reade on the CBS soap Guiding Light, which he starred in between 2002 and 2003, for the Superman audition process.
