Bradley‘s decision to not cross the picket lines to promote the movie was first reported by The Wrap.

According to a summary of the movie from THR, Maestro “tells of the complex love story between Leonard Bernstein and Felicia Cohn Montealegre. It’s a story that spanned more than 30 years, from the time they met in 1946 at a party, and continuing through two on-off engagements, a 25-year marriage, three children – Jamie, Alexander and Nina – and as Bernstein grappled with his own sexual orientation.”

Maestro is expected to debut on Netflix this year. Find out which actor Bradley kisses in the film (and see pics of the on-set moment!)
