Overview
Looking: The Movie (2016) serves as the heartfelt conclusion to HBO’s acclaimed series Looking, bringing closure to the stories of Patrick, Dom, and Agustín as they continue to navigate love, friendship, and identity in San Francisco.
After time away in Denver reflecting on his life and relationships, Patrick (Jonathan Groff) returns home for Agustín’s (Frankie J. Alvarez) wedding to Eddie (Daniel Franzese). Back in familiar streets and faces, he is confronted by unresolved emotions when he crosses paths with his ex-boyfriend Kevin (Russell Tovey) and former lover Richie (Raúl Castillo). Patrick must finally face the question he has long avoided: what kind of man does he truly want to be—and who does he want by his side?

Meanwhile, Dom (Murray Bartlett) stands at a crossroads, weighing his business ambitions against the possibility of personal fulfillment, while Agustín, having grown through his past struggles, embraces marriage with Eddie—marking just how far he has come since the series began.
Bittersweet, tender, and unflinchingly honest, Looking: The Movie offers closure without sacrificing the intimacy and realism that defined the series. It is a celebration of the messy complexities of love, the strength of chosen family, and the courage required to live authentically.
