Exclusive video chat with Ian McKellen (Part 2): "King Lear" and "The Prisoner"

Last month we posted the first part of our recent sit-down with acclaimed gay actor Ian McKellen, in which he and our own Daniel Leary chatted about the state of politics and gay rights.

Today we're back with the second swath of gabby goodness, in which the two discuss Sir Ian's celebrated stage performance of King Lear (which premiered on PBS last night) and his upcoming television project, a highly-anticipated remake of The Prisoner.

Enjoy, after the break!
