Ben Platt plays Will’s boy toy in new “Will & Grace” clip

This week,  the beat on the street is that Will and Jack are both on the hunt for younger male lovahs.

And it seems the rumors are true. In a new Will & Grace clip, we meet Will’s bright-eyed young suitor, played by Ben Platt (best known for roles in Pitch Perfect and Broadway’s Dear Evan Hansen.) Platt’s character comments how Will (Eric McCormack) favorably resembles a newscaster, resulting in all sorts of repartee. (“This just in,” etc.)

As well as the new clip, you can also enjoy the cast tripping over their words in a newly-released blooper reel. So get on that.
