Dylan O’Brien wore red lingerie and it was everything we didn’t know we needed
Dylan O'Brien in lingerie was not on our 2024 bingo card, but we are not complaining.
OK, so Dylan O’Brien strutting around in red lingerie was not on our 2024 bingo card.
That being said, we are not complaining.
Perhaps we’re getting ahead of ourselves. The 32-year-old certified hunk — of Teen Wolf and Maze Runner fame — didn’t just don a lacy red combo on his own accord.
How about we take this to the next level?

It all happened in a recent episode of Fantasmas on HBO and Max, and we have queer actor, comedian, and writer Julio Torres to thank.

Julio Torres is creating a dreamworld of queer comedy that is also deeply personal
Actor, writer and director Julio Torres has been winning audiences with his creative brand of surreal queer comedies.
The inventive Salvadoran-American creator is known for his affinity towards surrealism and, uh, quirkiness in general.
His past projects include Los Espookys and this year’s big-screen modern-day fairytale Problemista, though nothing has been quite like Fantasmas.
The premise for the show is simple: “The tale of a lost golden oyster.”
But its execution is incredibly psychedelic, which is why past episodes have shown vignettes like Fire Island‘s Tomás Mato running the world’s craziest Uber competitor and Paul Dano laughing with a furry, pink puppet.
And, of course, O’Brien in women’s lingerie. Speaking of which, it’s probably time we stop hiding the goods from you.
WARNING: Light spoilers for Fantasmas Episode 5 to follow.
In Episode 5, O’Brien portrays Dustin, a celebrity client of talent agent Vanesja (Martine Gutierrez).
Unfortunately, his luggage gets lost by an airline, leaving him with only one option: borrowing a lingerie set from his agent’s closet — complete with stockings, garters, and kitten heels — and strutting around fabulously. (He could probably use some lessons on walking in women’s shoes, though.)
Please don’t try and justify it or suggest that he goes outdoors and buys a new outfit. Clearly, this was his only option, because it’s the only option that ends up with O’Brien cosplaying “lady in red.” And showing butt on main.
Thank you, Julio Torres!
That being said, this isn’t the first time O’Brien has given the gays everything they didn’t know they needed.
Back in 2023, he played himself in an episode of gone-too-soon comedy The Other Two, where he literally sniffed his pits then took a shower on Zoom while Carey Dubek (Drew Tarver) secretly watched.
“I reek,” the actor says in the clip. “Daddy don’t do good on a stinky audish.” Whew!
It’s clear O’Brien and his onscreen collaborators know exactly what they’re doing — and we won’t stop watching anytime soon.
