Twelve seconds and a reference to “two moms” are standing between DoctorStrange and Gulf audiences. Disney has so far refused to cut the scene.
Officials are quibbling over “barely 12 seconds” of content in which a lesbian character, America Chavez , acknowledges her “two moms.” Alsabhan told the outlet that since homosexuality is illegal in the region, “it’s very tough to pass” a scene like this through the censors.
–directed sequel had been outright banned from release, Alsabhan’s denial seems to hinge on Disney slashing the scene in question. “There’s no reason to ban the film,” he said. “It’s a simple edit…so far they have refused. But we haven’t closed the door.” Tickets to the film, which hits U.S. theaters on May 6, are still on sale in the United Arab Emirates, suggesting that its release in that area will be unaffected.
