Disney gay show

All this is handled pretty realistically, but in classic Pixar fashion, there's a fantastical twist. During the many adventures and challenges she faces there, she develops a romantic relationship with former bully Amity Blight.

Luz and Amity's romance is the source of many of the story's sweetest moments, but it's not the only LGBTQ+ representation in the show.

One of them, Larma D'Acy (Amanda Lawrence), actually has a somewhat significant role in the previous film, "Star Wars: Episode VIII — The Last Jedi." However, given that her role in "The Rise of Skywalker" is basically limited to kissing her partner Wrobie Tyce (Vinette Robinson), you're forgiven if you didn't recognize or remember her.

"High School Musical: The Musical: The Series," the confusingly-titled Disney+ mockumentary show about a group of high school students doing stage productions of various Disney musicals — including "High School Musical" — no longer has to rely on coding. Zeller is also gay himself. At the beginning of the movie, Ethan has a crush on his friend Diazo.

Amongst various comical overreactions to not-actually-dirty jokes, one note that stands out is a complaint that the sheriffs Blubs and Durland appeared too "flirtatious" in one scene. Even if Disney didn't make the show, however, the fact that the House of Mouse distributed it is a sign of how the company has grown at least somewhat more progressive in regards to LGBTQ+ representation on television.

Roberto "Bobby" Cañero-Reed (Charlie Bushnell) is the older brother of the show's protagonist Elana (Tess Romero), a 13-year-old girl with her eyes set on the presidency (Gina Rodriguez plays President Elana in future-set flash-forwards).

Turns out they're both right, because Taylor has two moms.

Disney representatives told TV Guide in 2013 that the story was "developed under the consultancy of child development experts and community advisers. However, even before, there were several characters that were queer-coded or whose journey positively inspired many LGBTQ+ fans. However, some of these depictions have been more forward than others.

Few Disney characters are explicitly declared to be gay by the studio or its filmmakers, but viewers have picked up on "gay coding," meaning characters exhibiting traits corresponding with LGBTQ.

Her MCU introduction in 2022's "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" acknowledges her background and the fact that she has two moms, whom she accidentally sent into another dimension and hopes to rescue at some point. It follows Mei, who turns into a red panda when she has strong emotions, and her best friends, Priya and Miriam. Priya, for example, dances with another girl at a party, and the interaction has romantic connotations.

The series offers a positive look at young queer love in an accepting community.
