Tom Phillips - Making a Galaxy-Sized Comedy, Lesbian Space Princess

Chester and Scotty sit down with producer Tom Phillips to dive deep into “Lesbian Space Princess,” the animated comedy that’s been making audiences laugh from Berlin to Hong Kong.

Tom shares the wild origin story of how directors Emma Hough Hobbs and Lila Varghese pitched the film with just a few pictures and a title, the genius “Legally Blonde but lesbian space princess” concept, and how they managed to create an entire galaxy with only two full-time animators in just 12 months.

From casting Richard Roxburgh as a problematic spaceship to designing the hilariously villainous Straight White Maliens, Tom reveals the smart creative choices and heartfelt storytelling that makes this film work for both LGBTQ+ audiences seeking representation.

Perfect listening for film lovers, animation enthusiasts, and anyone curious about how bold, joyful queer cinema gets made. Part of our Hong Kong LGBTQ+ Film Festival interview series.
