Behind Big Boys: Corey Sherman’s Story
Friday, 4 July, 2025
Today, I have the privilege of sitting down with Corey Sherman—a bold, heartfelt, and refreshingly honest filmmaker whose debut feature Big Boys took the indie world by storm.Corey’s journey began in the Bronx, making comedies as a kid and following his passion all the way to USC’s School of Cinematic Arts. Along the way, he honed his voice through short films, animation, and even a stint writing for Adult Swim. But it’s with Big Boys—a tender coming-of-age dramedy about identity, body image, and first crushes—that Corey has truly cemented his place as a unique storyteller.In this episode, we dive into the creative process behind Big Boys, how Corey balanced comedy and vulnerability, and what it means to tell stories that center queer joy, big bodies, and emotional honesty. We also explore the risks he took, the personal truths behind the script, and the powerful impact the film has had on audiences around the world.
