Towleroad said at the time, “Cheadle’s professional life has been intertwined with LGBTQ issues. In addition to playing a father with a queer son on House of Lies, he appeared in Logic’s powerful 2017 clip “1-800-273-8255” which followed a gay teen as he inched toward taking his own life after he is discovered having a relationship with another gay teen and subsequently rejected by his father and his boyfriend’s father, as well as his teammates at school.”
