Meanwhile, Bomer has been doing splendidly in his career with his role in Magic Mike XXL and his upcoming appearance on the new season of American Horror Story. He previously told 3News that he finds himself interested in films that give him a fright.
"I think always if something scares me, I'm immediately drawn to it," Bomer said. "And then I ask why does it scare me, and if the answer to that is interesting, then I will probably do the job."
