Robert - The Young and The Restless
MAY 6, 2015 BY JAMES GARCIA
It's a bird, It's a plane, It's, super good news! Ahead of the upfronts next week, CBS has officially granted a full series order to Supergirl.
The series , developed by Arrow and The Flash producers Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg along with Chuck alum Ali Adler, was given a series commitment last fall, and has picked up quite a bit of buzz ever since. Where it will wind up on CBS schedule hasn't been announced, and likely won't be until the aforementioned upfronts next week, when the network unveils all of its plans for the upcoming fall television season.
Despite sharing a creative team with the CW DC shows, Supergirl is expected to stand independently from The Flash and Arrow - though I guess crossovers are never out of the question in today's superhero-driven climate. The show stars Glee's Melissa Benoist as Kara Zor-El, who escaped Krypton's destruction and has been living on Earth (and hiding her abilities) ever since. Now, at age 24, she's ready to step into the light and become a superhero, much like her superpowered cousin (who will only have a tertiary, background role in the show to establish his existence).
Joining Benoist are True Blood's Mehcad Brooks as Jimmy Olsen, Ally McBeal star Calista Flockhart as Cat Grant, Personal Affairs Robert Gant as Zor-El, Nashville's Laura Benanti as Alura Zor-El, Smash's Jeremy Jordan as Winslow Schott a.k.a. Toyman, Homeland's David Harewood as Hank Henshaw/Cyborg Superman, The Mentalist actor Owain Yeoman as supervillain Vartox, Grey's Anatomy alum Chyler Leigh as Kara's foster sister Alexandra Danvers, and former Kryptonians Dean Cain and Helen Slater (Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman and 1984's Supergirl) as Kara's foster parents.
Robert's "Criminal Minds", episode, is set to air on Wednesday night, March 4th at 8pm central time on CBS.
EDITED POST: According to the IMDB, Robert's episode of, "Criminal Minds," titled Lockdown is scheduled to possibly air Wed. Feb.18 at 9:00 PM on CBS. I will keep checking on it! Sorry about the mix up!
Great Day Three so far on "Criminal Minds." Terrific cast and crew. Shooting at a prison offers perspective. @CrimMinds_CBS #CriminalMinds

The ATX Television Festival will host a 10-year reunion for Queer as Folk, featuring creators Ron Cowen and Daniel Lipman and cast members Gale Harold, Peter Paige, Robert Gant, Scott Lowell, Michelle Clunie and Thea Gill. The fest takes place June 4-7 in Austin, Texas
Ten years after going their separate ways, the boys from Pittsburgh are back.
The cast and writers of Showtimes' groundbreaking series, "Queer as Folk" are returning for one-time reunion special at this year's ATX Festival in Austin, Texas.
The award-winning show, which aired from 2000 to 2005, followed the lives of a group of gay friends and their relationships, careers, loves and ambitions.

Creators Ron Cowen and Daniel Lipman will join cast members Gale Harold (Brian Kinney), Peter Paige (Emmitt Honeycutt), Robert Gant (Professor Ben Bruckner), Scott Lowell (Ted Schmidt), Michelle Clunie (Melanie Marcus), and Thea Gill (Lindsay Peterson).
So, far, the only no-show from the original group is Hal Sparks (Michael Novotny).
"I'm so excited for the 'Queer as Folk' reunion," said Paige. "We truly are a family, and any chance we have to be in the same room, catching up, sharing in each other's lives, is wonderful."
Based on the British series by the same name, "Queer as Folk" was the first hour-long drama on American television to portray the lives of gay men and women.

Robert plays Dr. Hansen
Storyline
Veteran actress Lainey Allen (Chappell) is tired of being sidelined for younger talent on the soap she has starred in for twenty years. Coupled with finding it harder to retain her lines, she decides not to renew her contract, and she and her publicist and partner, Eva Morales (Leccia), move to a beach house overlooking the ocean on the Central California coast. The move highlights some small changes in Lainey's personality - mild depression that Eva puts down to leaving the show. But when Lainey starts to forget more than can be attributed to stress, Eva insists on a visit to the doctor. A Million Happy Nows chronicles Lainey and Eva's changing relationship as they struggle to deal with the diagnosis of Lainey's Early Onset Alzheimer's, the prospect of an indomitable woman's future of dependence and her single support system - the woman who was once in awe of her, became everything to her, and will now look after her.

Robert will play Pete Santilli.
Storyline
Based on the award winning critically acclaimed short film, "Love is All You Need?" is the theatrical feature length version that explores bullying, racism, and prejudice in a way never done before on the big screen. As you read this, a pre-teen or teen, in the United States has committed suicide. Teen suicide in the LGBT community has gained immense popularity on a larger social scale then ever before. While the interest in this social dilemma is thrust into the spotlight none have ever before addressed this social issue in such a manner as Kim Rocco Shields newest film. Love Is All You Need? thrusts its audience into another thought of existence that does more than just acknowledge there is a serious social problem affecting the gay community and does more than just talk about the issue. In Love Is All You Need? its audience lives the issue. Different people and their individual, unique lives intertwine and collide in a world confronted with controversy and forbidden love.

Published: October 08, 2009
Logo, the MTV-owned all-gay cable network, is preparing to unleash an impressive lineup of GLBT films during its third Fall Film Festival.
Logo has cherry-picked this year's gay and lesbian film festival circuit to bring some outstanding filmmaking to the small screen. Complete films will also be available for viewing at the network's website.
The festival kicks off Sunday, October 18 at 10PM with the U.S. broadcast premiere of An Englishman In New York.
Fans of all things Quentin Crisp will surely relish Englishman. The film focuses on the gay writer's ascension into New York society, where he was lauded for his flamboyance. It is a follow-up to the British television movie The Naked Civil Servant. In that 1975 film John Hurt played the younger Crisp, a role he reprises here. The movie also stars Sex In The City star Cynthia Nixon. The openly lesbian actress plays the role of Penny Arcade, a close friend of Crisp in his later years.
Also included in the lineup is the greatly overlooked The New Twenty by writer-director Chris Mason Johnson.
Twenty looks at the friendships of six New Yorkers. The group of hip twenty-somethings includes gay and straight members unencumbered by sexual stereotypes, living in a post gay urban setting where sexual diversity is embraced.
"The fact is, gay/straight friendships ? minus the drama - are more and more common for young adults especially the urban and educated," Johnson says in the movie's press kit. "The casual attitude towards gay/straight bonding for characters like those in The New Twenty might be summed up as: What's the big deal?"
Director Robert Cary's ex-gay drama Save Me is a sobering look at the culture war that continues to brew between evangelical Christians in the ex-gay movement and the gay men and women they seek to "cure." Save Me is must-watch filmmaking.
The film stars two of Hollywood's most talented openly gay stars, Chad Allen (Donald Strachey Mysteries) and Robert Gant (Queer As Folk).
Also being screened is the quirky British import Mr. Right. The romantic comedy looks at the lives of six gay men living in London's gay neighborhood of Soho. The film is a refreshingly contemporary look at the lives of gay men that spares us the worn cliches.

Here's the link to vote in the TV Movie/Miniseries category. Robert's movie, "Kiss Me Deadly," is nominated!
We finally got our gay James Bond in this here! TV produced movie starring the out, hunky Robert Gant. And while people were of mixed opinions on the movie's quality, if you go ahead and admit that Bond is cheesy, campy fun, this really was the same thing ? minus the exotic locales, $200 million budgets, and expensive English sports cars.
In the beginning Bond wasn't nearly as fancy-schmancy as he is these days, and Gant is just the strapping stud I'd travel to the moon with.
The dashing Robert Gant brings his best as he gets moving to the quickstep, a swinging dance floor favorite. Check it out!

From: Reel Affirmations
Save Me, starring Chad Allen, Robert Gant and Judith Light, narrowly (by 1 point) beat out Opening Night favorite Breakfast with Scot to snag the Reel Affirmations Audience Award.
The intersection of homosexuality and religion comes into sharp focus at the ex-gay ministry run by Judith and her husband. The Christian aspect of life at Genesis House is rarely played for laughs and is afforded a nobility of cause that in other scripts might have been lost. The men residing at the home, a fairly whitebread assortment of gay men in various stages of "acceptance" are treated as family members, privy to secrets and (and often quick to exploit shared confidences in moments of pique).
Chad Allen, the bad boy battling both meth and mommy issues, soon falls into an easy comraderie with Robert Gant, whose long tenure, ties to the area and affable nature has accorded him favored status among the other men, the townsfolk and Judith.
What lends Save Me its heart is the struggle both men endure as they grow closer, foregoing the "embrace, then agonize" motif expected. Alan is genuinely torn - he basks in praise earned for a scripture reading and takes to heart his role as friend and mentor to the younger men.
Inevitably, matters come to a head - in ways both gasp-inducing and laugh out-loud funny, as the two men's live become more entwined. In the end, though, the dignity and reason that seems to be so often lost on either side of the culture war prevails- imbuing the film with a profound acceptance of what can be gained - by simply adhering to a few basic commandments.
-mmNovember 14: Robert will attend the screening of "Save Me," at the Indianapolis LGBT Film Festival. A Q&A is set to follow the screening. For screening time and to purchase tickets please visit their website found here: Indy LGBT Film Fest

"Save Me" is a deft exploration of the controversial ex-gay movement. The story follows Mark, a drug-addicted young man who overdoses and finds himself at the mercy of his disapproving family. Their solution to Mark's problems is to check him into a Christian run ministry overseen by Gayle, who believes she can help cure young men of their 'gay affliction' through spiritual guidance. At first, Mark resists the efforts of Gayle and her loving husband Ted, but soon finds solace and brotherhood with several of the members, including Scott, who is battling family demons of his own. When Mark and Scott begin to find their friendship developing into an unexpected romance, both are forced to confront the new attitudes they're beginning to accept, and Gayle finds the values she holds as an absolute truth to be threatened.

September 3, 2008: Unfortunately, even though Robert is listed as attending the GLAAD, New York celebrity red-carpet premiere and VIP after party for, "Save Me," he is unable to attend. He is still in the UK filming his new series, "PA's."
On September 5, 2008 a movie that takes a look at one of the most polarizing issues in America will premiere at Clearview Chelsea Cinema, in New York City.
Ten years in the making, "Save Me" (directed by Robert Cary from a screenplay by Robert Desiderio) is a superbly acted, wonderfully sensitive film about three people who are struggling (each in their own way) with the issue of homosexuality.
Mark (played by Chad Allen), is an extremely troubled man who embarks on a self-destructive path of drugs, alcohol and meaningless sex to escape his troubled conservative home life.
Scott (played by Robert Gant), is not only trying to deny his sexuality to himself, but his very judgmental Christian father as well.
Judith Light plays Gayle, a deeply religious woman who along with her husband Ted (Stephen Lang), runs a privately funded Christian 12-step "recovery" facility, called Genesis House. Their ministry's mission is to help 'heal' men of their homosexuality.
Since the movie is going to premiere shortly in New York and then in LA, we would like ask that all the Chad Allen, Robert Gant, Judith Light and Stephen Lang fans help spread the word to as many people as possible. If you have a Myspace page, Live Journal, Facebook account, or if you post in any forums or Yahoo groups,
please post this banner along with a link back to the official "Save Me" movie website found here: SAVE ME OFFICIAL WEBSITE
The website is updated with screening locations and dates, so be sure to check back if needed to find a theater in your area.
"Save Me" is a remarkable film that handles a difficult and true subject matter with sensitivity. It did not fall back on the old 'good vs. evil' plot to tell its very powerful and moving story. It's a wonderful film and I know you will enjoy it.
Hey everyone. Robert posted a new message on his website: Be The Change
So, hop on over to see what he has to say about turning the big 4-OH, his birthday wishes and his new series
October 31-November 2, 2008: There has been a lot of speculation going around about why Robert is not attending the QAF/L Word con in Paris. According to Robert's manager, the convention organizers just couldn't afford to pay his fee due to lack of ticket sales at the time.

From heretv
here! set to premiere "Kiss Me Deadly"
Shannen Doherty and Robert Gant star in highly anticipated spy thrillerApril 17 ? here!, America's premium gay television network, is pleased to announce the premiere of "Kiss Me Deadly: A Jacob Keane Assignment." The film, starring Shannen Doherty ("Beverly Hills, 90210," "Charmed") and Robert Gant ("Queer as Folk") will be released theatrically and premiere on the network on May 2nd.
Doherty and Gant star as former spies caught in a web of dangerous intrigue. Directed by Ron Oliver ("Queer as Folk," here!'s "Shock to the System" and "Third Man Out"), and shot in New Zealand, Gant plays Jacob Keane, a photographer living the family life in Milan with his loving boyfriend, Paolo, and Julia, the daughter he shares with his lesbian friend, Kyra. When a young woman, Marta (Doherty), arrives from his past life, he is pulled back into the high-stakes world of international espionage. Together they must elude a mysterious enemy who becomes more of a threat the closer they come to revealing the truth about their alliance.
Similar in style to "The Bourne Identity" movies, the film also stars acclaimed character-actor John Rhys-Davies (from the final two installments of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy) and features a suspenseful game of who-dun-it that questions the main characters' true loyalties. Much like another here! hit original film franchise "The Donald Strachey Mysteries" ? starring Chad Allen and also directed by Oliver ? "Kiss Me Deadly" blazes a trail by going into often-uncharted territory: placing its main character (Gant) as a courageous action-hero who also happens to be gay, as opposed to making his sexuality a central theme of the film.
"The filmmakers had an absolute blast re-imagining the spy genre with a gay element. Robert and Shannen's chemistry makes the film all the more fun to watch," said Meredith Kadlec, Senior Vice President of Original Programming.
