While Disney has been criticized for a lack of LGBTQ representation in its films, there have been some notable instances of LGBTQ characters appearing in recent years.
Here are a few examples:
- "Onward" (2020): The film features a character named Officer Specter, voiced by Lena Waithe, who is openly gay.
- "Luca" (2021): Although not explicitly stated, the character of Giulia's father is widely interpreted as being gay.
- "The Owl House" (2020-present): This animated series features a lesbian protagonist, Luz Noceda, who is in a relationship with another female character, Amity Blight.
- "Star vs. the Forces of Evil" (2015-2019): This animated series features a lesbian couple, Marco Diaz and Jackie Lynn Thomas, who are depicted as a romantic couple.
These are just a few examples of LGBTQ representation in Disney films and television shows. While there is still room for improvement, Disney has made strides in recent years to include more diverse characters and stories in its content.
