LOS ANGELES (REUTERS) - Walt Disney has been unable to obtain permission to show its new Pixar movie Lightyear in 14 Middle Eastern and Asian countries, a source said on Monday (June 13), and the animated film appeared unlikely to open in China, the world's largest movie...

Disney has not received an answer from Chinese authorities on whether they would allow the film in cinemas, Lightyear producer Galyn Susman said. But she said filmmakers would not make changes to the movie.

China is not a"make or break" market for Pixar, one theatre industry source said. It contributed a mere 3% to the global box office for Toy Story 4, which grossed more than US$1 billion in worldwide ticket sales in 2019, according to Comscore. Any objections to Lightyear over LGBTQ issues were"frustrating," Evans said."It's great that we are a part of something that's making steps forward in the social inclusion capacity, but it's frustrating that there are still places that aren't where they should be," Evans said.In May, Disney refused requests to cut same-sex references in Marvel movie Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.

Pixar's Lightyear, with same-sex couple, will not play in 14 countries; China in questionThe animated film depicts a same-sex couple who share a brief kiss. 'Gay-moment' is the new opium to corrupt the mind. As far as the west are concerned, they will snide it as China's narrow-minded fault. Pretty insidious of them to slip it in a cartoon for kids! Filth starting to creep in as usual all sneaky films n media to corrupt young children..must be a pedophile producer..
