“It’s a new time with a new audience,” series creator David Collins told Entertainment Weekly. “If the original round was about tolerance, this time it is about acceptance.”

For the new Queer Eye, the group of guys will leave New York City and travel to red states across America—giving makeovers to men who might not have the same political views as them.

“In order to make the emotions bigger, you actually had to see how [the Fab Five] were reacting to being with a cop from the South who was a Trump supporter, [or] ‘hillbilly Tom,’ who refers to himself by saying ‘you can’t fix ugly,’” said executive producer Rob Eric.

The trailer might be missing Carson Kressley's witty quips, but it looks like it will have plenty of heart—and at least they kept (a remixed version) of the original's classic theme song, "All Things."

If you watch Gay of Thrones, then you will recognize Jonathan Van Ness who is taking over for Kyan in the grooming department on the revival. Kamaro Brown, who will be the resident culture vulture on the series, is no stranger to reality TV since he was on The Real World: Philadelphia.

Rounding out the Fab Five are Tan France (fashion), who France is the creator of women’s clothing line Kingdom & State and co-creator of Rachel Parcell Inc, Antoni Porowski (food) who was Ted Allen’s personal chef and Bobby Berk, who runs his own line of home furnishings.

“These guys walked away truly loving every single hero that they made over and talked about them for weeks afterward. It affected them just as much as they affected our hero,” explained Collins.

“It’s got such a great heart and soul and humor to it, so I’m excited for a new audience. But I guess if there was something to be real specific, if the original round was about tolerance, this time it is about acceptance.”

In the preview Berk says that the reboot is all about love: "Gay, straight, the common thread that holds every human together is we just want to be loved."
