The new images reveal Alan Cumming as Leo, who owns a bar called Spit & Polish in Manchester's Gay Village. Additionally, we see Morrissey as Clive, Leo's "unsmiling and troubled" next-door neighbour. The first-look images show Cumming standing outside his gay bar in the evening. Fairy lights and Pride flags are hanging behind him on the street. Meanwhile, Morrissey is leaning against the door of a car, staring right at the camera.

Alan Cumming is a man who wears many hats: actor, producer, presenter and queer bar owner, but being artistic director of Scotland 's Pitlochry Festival Theatre may be his most personal project to date. The 60-year-old star, born just 15 miles from Pitlochry, aims to put the town on the map with Out in the Hills, a new festival dedicated to LGBTQ+ arts. Taking place from 16 to 18 January, the festival will brighten up the start of 2026 with film screenings, theatre performances, photography exhibitions and intriguing conversations.
