I consider myself a Joel Schumacher fan. I even count The Lost Boys, Batman & Robin, and The Phantom of the Opera as some of my favourite films — yes, my tastes are eclectic. Yet, when I learned Rory Culkin would be portraying Joel Schumacher on Halston, I had no idea it was THAT Joel Schumacher. It makes sense that Culkin's time on the miniseries is basically a blip as Joel hated fashion and eventually became the campy director behind the infamous "Bat-nipples".
Schumacher even once told The Guardian, "I really don't think that Halston needed us at all. It was his vision and of course it was an overnight success." What the Netflix series doesn't show, is that the two remained friends until Halston's death, with Schumacher adding, "He was one of the most loving, kindest friends I've ever had."
