Why Will Ferrell Wanted a Doc About His Friendship with a Trans Woman to Release Before the Election
The documentary “Will & Harper” explores the journey of Harper Steele, a trans woman, and her friendship with Will Ferrell. The film’s director, Josh Greenbaum, notes that the timing of its release in an election year, where trans rights are under significant threat, is not mere coincidence. Greenbaum hopes the personal nature of the friendship depicted will resonate with more cautious viewers, aiming to keep the narrative intimate and personal rather than political. This approach is intended to avoid alienating half the audience who might perceive it as having an agenda, while still addressing the critical issues surrounding trans rights.
