Both Love, Victor and Love, Simon offer up tender stories of how terrifying it can be to come out as an LGBTQ+ person to your friends and family, but ultimately show queer youth and adults alike that romance is out there for us and that we all deserve a great love story. 
Season 2 of Hulu's television spinoff introduces Rahim, played by 20-year-old actor Anthony Keyvan. He's originally shown as Pilar's best friend but as the show goes on, we see Rahim's own struggle to balance his understanding of his sexuality with his and Muslim faith and parents' expectations.
