The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation has released a report bemoaning the decline of LGBT characters in film.
“We are in an era of increased censorship efforts – including most recently and outrageously the Federal Communications Commission opening an inquiry for public comment on whether TV ratings should warn audiences about LGBTQ families and transgender and nonbinary characters in TV programming,” GLAAD CEO and President Sarah Kate Ellis wrote. “It is clear that our advocacy must evolve to meet the gravity of this moment.”
“Our stories are disappearing,” GLAAD wrote Sunday on Instagram.
The study, Where We Are in Film, “maps the quantity, quality and diversity of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) characters in films released by ten major motion picture studios during the 2025 calendar year.”
