The Man in the High Castle’ actor DJ Qualls has come out as gay.

The actor – who has also appeared in Breaking Bad and Lost – is best known for his breakout role in the 2000 comedy Road Trip.

Over the weekend, the actor opened up about his sexuality during his friend’s comedy show in San Diego and then took to Twitter to confirm the news saying he is ‘tired of worrying’ about what it would do to his career.

He wrote: “It is 11:20pm. I just came out on stage at a @jimjefferies show in San Diego. Yep, I’m gay. Been gay this whole time.

“Tired of worrying about what people would think of me. Tired of worrying about what it would do to my career.”

Qualls also had a cameo – as himself – in the video for Britney’s 2002 single ‘Boys’.
