As Disney apparently proceeds to promote what some critics deride as its "not-at-all-secret gay agenda," the company's next animated feature film, "Strange World," will reportedly include its first openly gay teenage romance.
Matthieu Saghezchi, a production designer for animation, tweeted about screening a snippet of the new film, which was recently shown at the Annecy 2022 International Animation Film Festival in southeast France.
"Just saw the very first glimpse into #Disney’s #StrangeWorld at the #Annecy2022 festival – it features the first openly gay teen romance in a Disney feature!!! ... #RepresentationMatters," Saghezchi wrote.
"The scene describes the son being very shy in front of his boy crush, and his dad comes in and says 'so nice to meet you! my son talks about you all the time' and further embarrasses his son ... very cute," he continued.

Throughout a recent company meeting about addressing Florida's recently adopted Parental Rights in Education Act, Disney Executive Producer Latoya Raveneau argued to be regularly "adding queerness" to the company's children's programming.
"Our leadership over there has been so welcoming to my not-at-all-secret gay agenda," Raveneau announced. "I don't have to be afraid to have these two characters kiss. Wherever I could, just basically adding queerness. No one would stop me, and no one was trying to stop me."
