“We at Pixar have personally witnessed beautiful stories, full of diverse characters, come back from Disney corporate reviews shaved down to crumbs of what they once were,” the letter read. The revelation comes just a few weeks after employees at Pixar wrote a letter that alleged Disney cut out 'nearly every moment of overtly gay affection' from their films, according to Variety.
However, the film's creators reportedly opted out of a queer portrayal because they were unsure of how to fit it into the storyline.Īpparently, they felt unable to make it clear without providing Giulia with a female love interest, and didn't want to feature romance in the film. The character in question is Luca and Alberto's human friend Giulia (Emma German).
