Michael Urie has a new Netflix movie in the works!

Netflix has announce that the 40-year-old Ugly Betty actor will be starring alongside Philemon Chambers and Luke Macfarlane in the upcoming holiday, gay rom-com Single All the Way.

Here’s what the movie is about: “Desperate to avoid his family’s judgment about his perpetual single status, Peter convinces his best friend Nick to join him for the holidays and pretend that they’re now in a relationship. But when Peter’s mother sets him up on a blind date with her handsome trainer James — the plan goes awry.”

Single All the Way‘s cast also includes Jennifer Coolidge, Kathy Najimy, Jennifer Robertson, and Barry Bostwick.

As of right now, Single All the Way doesn’t have a release date.

It’s sad news for Michael Urie and Becki Newton‘s CBS pilot, Fun.

According to Deadline, the network has decided not to move forward with the project which starred the former Ugly Betty co-stars.

Fun was described as a life-long love story between a brother and a sister, who always encourage each other to have fun – no matter what hardship life is currently serving up.

The show centered on the brother (Urie) returns to his Pennsylvania hometown to help his sister (Newton) run the struggling business after his emotional and devastating break-up with…show business.

While this is unfortunate news, Becki did have something pretty amazing happen to her during quarantine. See what it was…
