Frank De Julio: The Body in the Bag


FH readers know I love my TV hunks, but also know, I am usually lagging behind with my viewing.  Although their seasons ended months ago, I still have multiple episodes on my DVR of Riverdale, Grey's Anatomy, The Good Fight and Killing Eve that I haven't had time to watch.  That was before the summer began, and a whole new slew of shows began.


Being on vacation this July didn't help, but I started getting caught up with Pose the other night and last night watched the second season's third episode, Butterfly/Cocoon.  Pose viewers had already been introduced to Paul, the guy who loves being dominated by Mistress Elektra.  In Butterfly/Cocoon however, when Paul decides to combine drugs and a gas mask, things go terribly wrong...


By the middle of the episode, poor Paul was stuffed in a suitcase, and Elektra, with a little help from Candy and Miss Orlando, was destined to never be unpacked again.  After seeing Paul in his red undies, before his met his untimely fate, I was curious about the actor and the body in the bag.


Actor Frank De Julio played both the scuzzy and sexy sides of Paul to perfection, even in his few brief moments on screen.  I was first introduced to Frank's work with his role as Nick in the 2014 HBO adaptation of The Normal Heart.  Viewers might also know the talented actor for his roles in Smash, The Affair, Bull, Blindspot and Orange is the new  Black.
