Pixar Reportedly Removed Gay Storyline from 'Luca'

Some new details are coming out about Pixar’s movie Luca.

Disney has been under fire the last few weeks since the Florida state legislature passed a bill designed to ban the discussion of sexual orientation or gender identity in kindergarten through third-grade classrooms.

Those opposed to the legislature called on Disney to stop funding politicians who support the bill, with Disney employees and LGBTQ+ organizations demanding that CEO Bob Chapek speak out against it.

According to a report from Variety, what allegedly happened behind the scenes of Luca exemplifies the self-censorship at the studio.

Pixar's Next New Movie is 'Luca' - See the First Look Photo!

Pixar has revealed their next film, titled Luca!

Set in a beautiful seaside town on the Italian Riviera, the original animated feature is a coming-of-age story about one young boy experiencing an unforgettable summer filled with gelato, pasta and endless scooter rides. Luca shares these adventures with his newfound best friend, but all the fun is threatened by a deeply-held secret: he is a sea monster from another world just below the water’s surface.

“This is a deeply personal story for me, not only because it’s set on the Italian Riviera where I grew up, but because at the core of this film is a celebration of friendship.
