Buzz Lightyear’s voice actor Chris Evans was outraged by the criticism he received about the same-sex kiss in the new Pixar film “Lightyear”. Animation has even been banned in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait, where homosexuality is a crime.
Causing the bans, the “Lightyear” scene in question shows a scientist, voiced by Uzo Aduba Hawthorne, kissing his wife. According to information from GamesRadar, the moment would have been cut from the film, but later restored. That’s because Disney was recently targeted for making a donation to the sponsor of Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill.
“The truth is these people are idiots,” Evans told Reuters. “Whenever there has been social progress when we wake up, American history, human history is made up of constant awakening and social growth and that’s what makes us good.”
Outraged, the Marvel star criticized those who “live in the past”. “There will always be people who are afraid and unconscious and try to keep what they were before. But these people die like dinosaurs. I think the goal is not to pay attention to them, to move forward and embrace the growth that makes us human. “
Say, Chris Evans: Does “Lightyear” have post-credits scenes?
“Lightyear” will debut in Brazilian theaters this Thursday and, as it has become a trend, the question remains: are there any post-credits scenes in the film?
The answer is yes, and not just one. The film that features a space adventure lived by Buzz Lightyear – not the doll we know in the “Toy Story” franchise, but the Space Patrolman who gave birth to it – has three post-credits scenes. To find out what they are, access the full report (with spoiler) here.
Olhar Digital has already seen the “Toy Story” spin-off ahead of time, and you can check out what we think of the film here.
