Now, a gnarly new clip from the film delivers on that blink-and-you-miss-it sneak peek: Yep, Crush and Squirt, the sickest turtles in all the sea, are back to assist Dory, Nemo and Marlin on their adventure. Directed by Andrew Stanton (“Finding Nemo”, “WALL•E”) and produced by Lindsey Collins (co-producer “WALL•E”).
DeGeneres, 58, who voices the lovable Dory in the film, broke down barriers in Tinseltown when she was one of the first celebrities to publicly come out in 1997.
What can she remember?
“Finding Dory” is making some waves in the LGBT community. More of an insight into Dory’s story is being divulged as she travels the oceans in search of her family.
The seconds-long scene caused social media users to speculate that the two women were a couple, and perhaps the child’s parents.
Rumours have abounded over whether there will be a lesbian couple in the new Finding Dory film and now it looks like we have an answer.
Disney has been criticised by GLADD for not featuring one gay character in the 11 feature films it released in 2015.
