Wait.....didnt he do Alias after this ??  Wouldnt call that a career killer

Have to agree.  He had a number of successful parts well after TNBT.  ALIAS definitely was a great run as he was in it for the five seasons it was on, as well as being in the successful film "Monster In Law".  He has been in a steady number of movies and TV shows up until 2018.

To be fair, I think he was typecast as “the gay guy” before he worked with Madonna and had only had a little bit of success as that. His sexuality made it harder for him to get other roles as the world was more homophobic back then. Plus, literally every big actor has a flop movie now and again.

You do have to give Rupert credit for having the guts to be openly gay though. So many other had bigger success by staying in the closet.

Yea, this is so true unfortunately-  life was very different 24 years ago and longer and we forget that, because now we live so freely in most parts of the world.
