John Cameron Mitchell, best known for the films Hedwig and the Angry Inch and Shortbus, has been all over our TV screens lately — albeit not in roles that have particularly endeared him to viewers.

The actor has been playing "two horrible gay bosses": in the Hulu series Shrill, also starring Aidy Bryant, and in another guest appearance on The Good Fight, playing a "Milo Yiannopoulos clone," that's set to air Thursday night.

"I'm returning by public demand to torture Christine Baranski and Cush Jumbo, who has the best name in TV," he teased in an interview on BuzzFeed News' AM to DM on Thursday.

The actor said he has been overjoyed to play the villainous boss to Bryant's character, Annie, in Shrill, a body-positivity comedy-drama based on the memoir of writer Lindy West.

"Somebody's got to be horrible for sympathy to be laid upon Aidy Bryant," he said of his role as Gabe, the "former grunge performer" who "probably had a band" but now serves as the tyrannical editor of a Portland, Oregon, blog where Bryant's character toils away without notice.

"It's a fun role to play," he said.
