Troye Sivan writes on Instagram about his upcoming starring tole in Three Months: Florida, 2011. Caleb Kahn gets a text from a hot one night stand that he never thought he’d hear from again – he has just tested positive for HIV. Caleb remembers; the condom broke. how long until Caleb finds out if he has it too? 3 Months. . ‘3 Months’ is a movie we made against all odds throughout a global pandemic. It’s out on @paramountplus on Feb 23. It stars Ellen Burstyn, Lou Gossett Jr., Viveik Kalra, @briannetju, and myself. It’s brought to you by the producers of Juno + Up In The Air, (two of my fave movies!), and is directed + written by my friend and fellow Nice Jewish Boy @jaredfrieder. I care about it a lot. Can’t wait for you to meet Caleb!

Three Months writer, director, and executive producer Jared Frieder tells The Queer Review: “When I wrote Caleb, I wrote the kid who I wished I could have been in High School. He’s the nice Jewish boy who’s effortlessly cool, with a heart as big as his talent. Whereas Viveik Kalra’s Estha, the love interest, is the kid who I actually was in High School. Caleb is witty and heartfelt and a little bratty, but underneath it he’s dealing with shame and abandonment. Troye is such a gifted actor and was able to tap into all of those things while making it feel magnetic and lovable, but also grounded and real and honest. He carries this entire movie on his back, he’s in every scene and he’s accessing every emotion. He’s spellbinding. To work with him, as a big fan of his pop music, was one of the joys of my life so far.”
