“Love, Simon” was released on Mar. 16 and has since sparked discussion about acceptance toward LGBTQ youth.

It is profound the impact that teachers — or, in this case, principals — can have on youth. A role model like Mr. Worth shows just how valuable such a position can be.
“Greg [Berlanti], the director, worked with Denise Chamian, a fantastic casting director, and they were both kind enough to offer [the role] to me,” Hale said. “In terms of preparation, I just had playfulness with the evidence that my ethics, Mr. Worth, was kind of awkward and boundary-less but had this unreal passion for both the school and his students.”
Greg Berlanti, also known for producing sci-fi hits such as “The Flash” and “The Green Lantern,” was at the forefront of the venture and took an approach
