Despite these consistent successes, it sounds like We Are Who We Are was a bit of a personal breakthrough for Hynes.
“We Are Who We Are is the first time I’ve had to confront myself as someone who makes something,” says Hynes, reflecting on what it means to be a popular artist.
Hynes was cast in a brief role as himself in Guadagnino’s forthcoming show We Are Who We Are, about two American teenagers, Fraser and Caitlin, who meet on a US army base in Italy.
he meeting of minds between pop polymath Devonté Hynes and Call Me By Your Name director Luca Guadagnino makes perfect sense.
