Sir Ian stands for gay Russia
Gay actor and activist Sir Ian Mckellen has added his name to the list of many celebrities standing against Russia with their anti-gay laws after reports that a gay teen kidnapped and tortured by neo-Nazis has died from his injuries.
Mckellen has stepped forward to express his solidarity with Russian LGBTI people, showing support in a photo which was taken after a performance of ‘No Man’s Land,’ which he is currently starring in.
