In this episode, we sit down with the incredibly talented Leighton Alexander Williams. Leighton, an award-winning actor based in Toronto, Ontario, is set to co-star in the upcoming OutTV series Settle Down. This new mini series follows a podcast host who is a queer matchmaker with a booming success rate. When it comes to love, he knows all... except why his own relationship is on the rocks. Leighton plays the host’s partner on the show and shares his excitement about the program's upcoming broadcast.

Throughout the conversation, we explore Leighton’s journey to acting and the influential people who have empowered him along the way, along with his own personal coming out experience. With a mix of humor and heartfelt moments, Leighton offers valuable insights into the acting industry in both Canada and the U.S., his vision for his future career, and the impact he hopes to have on the next generation of actors. Leighton is carving out his space in an industry that has historically left little room for 2SLGBTQIA+ voices.

Settle Down premieres on OutTV, Prime Video and Vimeo on Friday, February 14th – Valentine's Day!
