In a 3-episode story arc on Rectify (2016), focus character Danny (Adan Young) is living in a halfway house. His roommate Manny (Stephen) walks around naked and masturbates in front of him; this is particularly upsetting because he was repeatedly raped in prison. But Manny won't stop. Finally Danny tells the house leader about it, expecting the guy to be kicked out. Instead, they give him a new roommate.
Coincidentally, Gavin Munn made his screen debut in an episode of Rectify, playing a little boy who Danny sees on the beach, causing him to think about a "normal" life, with a heterosexual wife and kids.

He frequently appears on the Chicago stage. His credits include The Seagull, Romeo and Juliet, Pericles, The Tempest, Lifeguard, Sex with Strangers, and The Last of the Boys.
He plays heterosexual men sometimes, too.
