Azriel Dalman: Young Percy Jackson, Mr. Martin, and Garrett Graham celebrates Pride, tells gay kids "It gets better." With nude costars

 

In August 2024, 10 year old actor/model Azriel Dalman posted a photo on his social media wearing a Pride shirt.  A fan wrote that he shouldn't post anything "political" or "controversial," or people wouldn't want him in their projects.  He responded with a photo standing beneath a giant Pride flag, and wrote that if you think supporting LGBTQ people is political or controversial, he doesn't want to be in your project. 

 He (or his Mom) continued, thanking Disney and Hallmark for producing inclusive shows, and telling queer kids "You matter!" and "Things will get better!"

Being pro-gay hasn't hurt the career of the Vancouver boy.  Born in December 2013, he already has 57 on-screen acting credits, plus modeling and theater.  I'm not going to go through all of them looking for gay content, just the ones that stand out.

2021:

Foragers, the pilot for a post-Apocalyptic tv series.  Azi plays the child version of Malakai (gay actor Kaden Connors, left).  No information on whether his character is gay.

2022:

Moonfall: Aliens knock the moon out of orbit!  Azi plays the child version of Sonny (Charlie Plummer), the gay-coded teenage son of the focus astronaut. 

2023:

In Percy Jackson and the Olympians, on the Disney Channel (2023-24), demigod Percy (Walker Scobell, left), modern-day son of the God Poseidon, fights monsters and tries to prevent a war among the gods, with the help of his Camp Halfblood buddies.  He's straight, but there are LGBT characters throughout, including Nico, son of Hades, who has a crush on Percy, and the god Ganymede.

I have an idea that Walker Scobell is gay, but a brief internet search doesn't reveal anything.  

Azi plays Young Percy.  Fun fact: he has brown eyes, but when he auditioned, he wore blue contact lenses to look more like Scobell.  His resume now states that he can put the lenses in and take them out "all by himself."  

2024:

Azi stars in Miracle on 34th Street at the Arts Club.

He appeared in an episode of Shogun, starring Cosmo Jarvis  (left) as a British sailor shipwrecked in Tokugawa Japan. He plays the grandson in a fantasy sequence.  

He models an androgynous outfit at the International Kids Runway.  A fan writes: "things got better."  Did he lose a job because of his commitment to LGBTQ rights?.

He appears in three episodes of Holidazed, about families interacting on a cul-de-sac at Christmastime. In one family, Ted (Osric Chau) just got engaged to his boyfriend Marcus (Shawn Ahmad).  Then his old-fashioned, traditional Grandma comes for a visit, and he isn't out to her!

2025:

Azi has a recurring role in Good American Family, about the life of Natalie Grace, a woman with dwarfism who was adopted by "a good American" family but abandoned three years later, when they suspected that she was really an adult.  He and Saul Thomson play her adopted brother Ethan, whom she tries to kill. No indication of gay content.

In the short Our Monsters, two boys (Azi, Xander Wilson) team up to fight the monster in the closet.  I couldn't find a clip to see if there is gay content, but Azi tells us that Xander is "so cute we could just die."  

Is that "we" Azi using they/them pronouns, or Mom and Azi together?  Either way, the boy is definitely demonstrating an interest in boys

Jonah Beckett: Sean Hayes' godson does bottom stuff, faints, sucks, gets nekkid. And that's just on tv. With Trevor's cock and Milo's butt

When I was looking for gay actors in Rooster, the MAX comedy with Steve Carell as a trashy novelist roped into becoming Writer in Residence at an elite private college, I identified Jonah Beckett.  He gives his pronouns (he/him), which seems to be an LGBTQ identifier, and he says that he is the godson of gay actor Sean Hayes of Will and Grace.  No doubt he means the comedic godson.

Besides, he's cute.

In Rooster Episode 1.2, creative writing student Eva tells the class that she writes about "real life," by which she means "three-ways, girl on girl, MILF, DILF....Eli!"

She is addressing Eli (Jonah), who has just come in late.  "Hey, do you want to be pegged?" (Have a dildo inserted into his butt).

"I have asthma!" he exclaims, embarrassed.  Why would that be a problem?

"Well, bring your nebulizer."  He glares at her and takes a seat.

Later, the trashy novelist attacks his former son-in-law while he is being interviewed live on the BBC.  "Want to be pegged" Eva, watching in bed on her laptop, starts laughing, and invites Eli to watch.  He's lying naked beside her.  Apparently he did want to be pegged.

It was a heterosexual act, of course, but if he likes dildos up there, maybe he wouldn't object to a cock.  I'm going to identify him as bi. 

I'll profile Jonah with the standard three questions:

#1: Any (other) LGBTQ Roles?

He has five acting credits listed on the IMDB:

A 2012 episode of the sketch comedy series Sketchy.

The short Suck Hard (2022): After she is dumped, a girl prepares to return a box of her ex boyfriend's stuff, with the help of her three friends, two girls and a boy (Jonah).  Presumably he's gay.

A 2025 episode of The Sex Lives of College Girls.  In a subplot, extremely femme college student Norman (Jonah) keeps complaining to Resident Advisor Bela that the guy in the next dorm room changes the "chore wheel" to "chode wheel," and plays his music too loud. The offender doesn't hear her knocking because he's wearing an Oculus headset -- in his underwear.

He's not mentioned by name, but I've narrowed him down to Trevor Tordjman (left), Roby Attal, or Derek Chadwick.

In a 2025 episode of St. Denis Medical,    college student Kyle (Jonah) collapsed during a frisbee game.  Doctors Serena and Matt (Mekki Leeper, left) test him for everything, then discover that he faints every time he sees his crush, Jeff (Jeremiah Brown).  "Well, tell him how you feel," they advise.  

He was just shy? 

At least two gay roles on screen.  Let's check Jonah's theatrical work.

The Top 12 Hunks of "School Spirits," living or not. A surprising number have posted dick pics.

 

School Spirits (2023-) stars Peyton List as Maddie Near, a high school student who suddenly finds herself wandering among the ghosts of other students (and one faculty member) who died at Split River High.  They have more lax rules than the ghosts of Ghosts: they can eat, change clothes, read books, and manipulate objects (although everything resets); but they cannot leave school property, and they cannot communicate with the living.  Except Maddie can.  Her ghost and living friends work together to solve the mystery of her disappearance.  Spoiler alert: She's not really dead.

There's some gay representation, and the beefcake quotient is very high.  Here are the top twelve hunks (with their dicks after the break):

1. Kristian Ventura as Simon, who had an unrequited crush on Maddie, and now can see and talk to her.  He's one of the main suspects in her disappearance.

2. Josh Zuckerman as Mr. Martin, a chemistry teacher who died in a lab explosion in 1968.  He runs an Afterlife Support Group, and gives the students assignments that supposedly will help them move on to the afterlife.  But he has a lot of secrets.

3. Nick Pugliese, top photo and left, as Charley, who died of a peanut allergy in the 1990s, just after a fight with his boyfriend (who is now a teacher at the school, so Maddie asks Simon to arrange an apology). 

4. Miles Elliot as Yuri, who died in the 1970s.  In order to avoid Mr. Martin's activities, he pretended to be cycling (only semi conscious, repeating the same action over and over); but in Season 2 he joins the gang, and starts dating Charley.

5. Zack Calderon (left) as Diego Herrera, the older brother of Maddie's living friend Nicole.

6. Milo Mannheim as Wally Clark, who died at a football game in the 1980s (the stadium is named after him).  He insists that the gang watch only sports movies, and continues to work out, leading one to conclude that ghosts have functioning cardiovascular systems.  In Season 2, Maddie and Wally start dating.
