Out actor Daniel Franzese recently
discussed the upcoming finale of the HBO series Looking.
When HBO abruptly canceled the gay
drama after its second season, the premium cable network promised a
special to end the series that revolves around the lives of three gay
men living in San Francisco. Patrick (played by Jonathan Groff) came
to the city to find love; Dom (Murray Barlett) is a middle-aged
waiter looking to fulfill his father's dream of owning a successful
restaurant; and Agustin (Frankie J. Alvarez) struggles with his art
and relationships.
After breaking up with his long-term
boyfriend, Agustin meets Eddie (Franzese), who is HIV-positive, in
season 2.
Groff recently made headlines when he
said that the show's finale will include “the most intense sex
scene” he's ever filmed.

finale includes “intense sex scene.”)
Speaking at a fundraiser for the LGBT
legal group Lambda Legal, Franzese revealed there is no sex for his
character in the show's final chapter, which he described as a
“beautiful little romantic comedy.”
“Happy and fun and romantic – this
is one of those kinds of movies,” Franzese
is quoted as saying. “I think it's a beautiful little romantic
comedy.”
