Dylan O’Brien and James Sweeney’s gay s*x scene video footage and GIF from their new movie Twinless have gone viral
Dylan O’Brien’s most recent film, Twinless, was apparently taken down from the Sundance Film Festival’s website when GIFs and video snippets of its intimate sequences began making the rounds.
It was anticipated that Twinless, which took home the Sundance Audience Award, would be a major highlight of the festival, which takes place from January 23 to February 2.

Queer filmmaker James Sweeney writes, directs, and stars in Twinless, a wild and sharp dark comedy that’s been taking this year’s Sundance Film Festival by storm and co-starring internet boyfriend Dylan O’Brien in dual twin roles (as well as Gilmore Girls‘ Lauren Graham and The Nightingale‘s Aisling Franciosi), the film’s logline, ”two young men meet in a twin bereavement support group and form an unlikely bromance”, is deceptively simple with a scene from the movie now going viral.
“Movies off my schedule and when I click the link from my email it just leads me to the general overview,” wrote a Reddit user who was the first to report the movie’s removal.

Numerous festival attendees vented their annoyance by accusing those who unlawfully captured and posted parts of Twinless on social media.
The leak might have affected ongoing purchase talks because it swiftly propagated across platforms like X.
Another Reddit user said, “Having images of the Audience Award winner leak is devastating, especially in the middle of likely acquisition negotiations.”

“If Eventive is so good at fraud prevention, then they should target the individuals responsible. How is removing tickets and screenings even remotely the correct way to handle this?” one user questioned.

The surprises and twists in Twinless never stop. This movie captivates the audience and keeps pushing them to keep up. When bad news arrives, it starts. We meet Roman (Dylan O’Brien), who is mourning the accident death of his twin Rocky. He finds himself at a support group with a number of others who are similar to him, and the agony is too great and numbing. These folks have all lost their twins.
