The World Can Wait

Last night saw the release of The World Can Wait, exclusively by Diva magazine. The World Can Wait was written, produced and directed by Deborah Espect (creator of the award-winning web series As We Are, which you can watch on her site along with her short film Dog Day featuring the late, great Bella Emberg).

The World Can Wait is a comedic short starring Veronica Jean Trickett (As We Are, Hard Tide, 8ish, Jedi's Code) as Vic, a lesbian superhero who finds her greatest foe in the TV execs who can't stand to see a happy lesbian couple on their show. A protest against the common trope in TV and film of killing off LGTB+ characters, particularly lesbians, it's also a funny take on genre films.

You can watch the film here or via the Diva link above. It also features Charlotte East, comedian Sarah Charsley, and my own lady Suzanne Mead.
