LGBTQ+ representation in mainstream films continued a three-year decline last year, according to GLAAD's latest "Where We Are in Film" study. The study also showed particularly troubling results when it came to trans representation in film and any LGBTQ+ representation in family films.

This week, the LGBTQ+ media watchdog released the 2026 edition of its annual report on Hollywood's inclusion of queer characters, examining 2025 releases from the industry's 10 largest studio distributors — A24, Amazon MGM Studios, Apple TV+, Lionsgate, NBCUniversal, Netflix, Paramount Skydance, Sony, The Walt Disney Studios, and Warner Bros. Discovery.

Of the 225 films the study tracked, GLAAD identified only 46 (20.4%) that featured LGBTQ+ characters, a more than 3% drop from 2024 and a more than 8% decline from 2023's high point of 28.5%.

Most troublingly, the 2026 study reported zero transgender characters in any of the 225 films, and zero LGBTQ+ characters in any animated or family films released by the 10 distributors last year. The lack of trans representation in mainstream movies comes amid the Trump administration's relentless efforts to roll back trans rights and visibility. And the absence of LGBTQ+ representation in animated and family films comes as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), under Chair Brendan Carr, is considering  introducing parental warning labels for LGBTQ+ content on TV.

Short answer, NO.

There is zero evidence that Gal Gadot is transgender. I would like to know why you felt it necessary to post that lie.

Sorry - it's just a conspiracy theory

No harm meant at all. It was just meant to be a bit of harmless fun
