We’ve seen “Queer Eye” make over all types of heroes over the years — from ranchers to gay pastors. But we’ve never seen anything like what Season 7 is promising. In Netflix’s first trailer for the new season, which premieres on May 12, the Fab Five are going to be helping the brothers of Lambda Chi Alpha.
“That’s right, we’re doing a frat house,” Bobby Berk says in the trailer. It isn’t long before those cheery quips become screams of horror as the five enter this mold and fly-covered party house. It’s all part of Berk, Antoni Porowski, Jonathan Van Ness, Karamo Brown and Tan France’s new season in New Orleans.
But it’s not going to be all sequins and Mardi Gras masks. In the tear-filled trailer, the team asks their heroes to confront everything from toxic masculinity to their own internalized homophobia. “No one has ever made me cry like this on this f–king TV show before,” Van Ness says in the trailer.
The season will also include what Van Ness has dubbed one of his biggest makeovers “arguably in ‘Queer Eye’ history.” As usual, this season promises to be emotional, but everyone will leave it looking fabulous. “Queer Eye” first premiered on Netflix in 2018 as a reboot of Bravo’s beloved series “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.” Just like in the original, every member of the team handles a specific subset of the makeover. Porowski specializes in food and wine, Berk handles interior design, Van Ness is grooming, Karamo is culture, and France tackles fashion.

Sometimes the cultural re-evaluation of a film can go both ways: For as much as viewers can say “Yes, this movie is actually good” they can also say “We see now it’s incredibly problematic.” Such is the case with director Kevin Smith’s 1997 feature “Chasing Amy,” which tells the story of a straight man (played by Ben Affleck) falling in love with a lesbian (played by Joey Lauren Adams). As director Sav Rodgers’ documentary, “Chasing Chasing Amy” explores in its first trailer: Can one enjoy a film that falls into stereotypes as often as it breaks them?“Chasing Chasing Amy” isn’t just a look at the Smith film but how it influenced Rodgers own journey of self-discovery.
