The film shows steamy scenes featuring Lorente and several other male characters. Sadly, there are homophobes who decided to comment on the gay kissing scenes, to which the 32-year-old Spanish actor addressed, stating:
“Well it’s happened again. It surprises me less and less, but it hurts me more.”
“The last post on my wall, which is a compilation of kisses from the latest film released on Netflix by Locomía, and the amount of homophobic, violent, unpleasant comments is worrying. I wish you all a lot of love, that you have a happy life without anyone hating you, or judging you for who you are,” Lorente further expressed.
He then concluded,
“Stop following me and I don’t give a damn, I don’t care at all. I prefer that you are not on a place like my profile.”
Moreover, Lorente is best known for portraying the character of Denver in ‘Money Heist’ and Nano in ‘Elite’. Not to mention, he is known for being a vocal ally of the LGBTQ+ community.
