Pixar’s New Short Film ‘Out’ on Disney+ Features The Studio’s First Gay Main Character
On May 22, 2020, Pixar began streaming their first heartwarming tale about same-sex love, marriage equality, and LGBTQIA on Disney+.
Love is love, and it is too beautiful, genuine, and resilient to remain hidden in the closet. Out contains an important message that our society must hear: Everyone deserves love, and that love comes in all different genders, sexes, shapes, and sizes.

In Pixar’s Out, we see how the main protagonist, Greg, is afraid to tell his parents that he is gay. He hides the picture of his boyfriend and him in the nightstand, but his mom finds it. Out focuses on the pain which Greg and his mother go through because sometimes, parents have trouble accepting their children for who they are. At times, they try to enforce their own outlooks on life and destiny upon their children.

You’re perfect just the way you are. 💕 Out is now streaming on Disney Plus.
Make sure to see Pixar’s newly released film, which promotes love for all. Love is kind, and not only does it not discriminate, but it creates a safe and loving space for everyone because our differences should unite us, not separate us from one another.
I am an incoming junior at the UCLA College of Letters and Science. Through my love and appreciation for literature, social justice, feminism, public speaking, and writing, I am planning on pursuing a career in immigration and public interest law. I want to help those who are either the victims of the system or discrimination because I wholeheartedly believe that the purpose of my life is to help others and take cases that nobody else is willing to take.
