Disney reinstates gay kissing scene in 'Toy Story' spinoff 'Lightyear'
The dispute is the latest salvo fired by staff amid a row about the entertainment giant's stance on gay rights. A source told Variety that the film features a character named Hawthorne, voiced by actress Uzo Aduba, who is in a relationship with another woman.
The relationship was apparently kept in the film but a kiss between the two characters had been allegedly cut and was restored amid the recent uproar. Neither Disney nor Pixar has made any public comment regarding the scene or the film, which isn't slated to premiere until June 17.
