Rebel Wilson said the idea that only straight actors can play straight roles and gay actors can play gay roles is “total nonsense.” In an appearance on BBC Radio 4’s “Desert Island Discs,” the Australian actor responded to host Lauren Laverne when she asked if Wilson felt there was a different standard with the types of jokes female comedians can make compared to male comedians.
