A newly released trailer for the Finding Nemo sequel has prompted speculation that the animated film could be Disney Pixar’s first to include a lesbian couple
. The trailer for Finding Dory, the sequel to the 2003 blockbuster about the adventures of a clown fish, debuted on the Ellen Show last week.
Ellen DeGeneres voices Dory, the amnesiac fish who sets out on a journey across the oceans to find her lost family.
The moment that sparked the rumours takes place almost three minutes into the trailer, when an octopus knocks a child out of her stroller at an aquarium. When the child’s carers turn around to check on her they appear to both be women. The scene was interpreted on Twitter as showing Disney/Pixar’s first lesbian couple.
