This week saw the Paramount+ release of the coming-of-age film "Three Months" starring out pop superstar Troye Sivan. In the film he plays "a Florida teen named Caleb who ponders life in 2011 — and the possibilities of love — after he hooks up with someone who has HIV," the New York Post said. "Caleb must then endure a grueling three-month wait to find out whether he himself has tested positive." "I can relate to a lot of Caleb," said Sivan, who, like his character, is both gay and Jewish. "There's a lot of experience that I think he goes through that I can really, really sympathize and empathize with." Despite its anxiety-ridden subject matter, Variety had this to say about the film: "Writer-director Jared Frieder's feature debut feels like the LGBT equivalent of 'Juno': snappy and refreshingly nonjudgmental in dealing with the consequences of a risky one-night stand." But, Sivan told IndieWire that the film nearly didn't get made. "It seemed like a massive gear shift to be trying to think about an acting project while I was so in the thick of the 'Bloom' tour," said Sivan. "When I finally did get to it, I had no idea whether the film had already been made, or where it was. I read it and hoped to god they hadn't made it yet and they hadn't. So within, I think it was three days, I had a meeting with the producers, and then I met with Jared, and we started filming maybe six weeks later."
