GLAAD
  • GLAAD's 13th annual Studio Responsibility Index reveals a decline in LGBT+ representation in major studio film releases, dropping from 28.5 per cent in 2022 to 23.6 per cent in 2024.
  • Transgender representation remains low, with only two 2024 films featuring trans characters and a decrease in screen time for LGBT+ characters overall.
  • Racial diversity among LGBT+ characters in films has decreased to the lowest level since 2019.
  • GLAAD President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis said authentic LGBT+ representation in films is important as a means of visibility, especially amid political attacks.
  • A24 was the only studio to receive a 'good' rating for LGBT+ inclusion, with 56 per cent of its films being LGBT+ inclusive, including titles like Queer and Love Lies Bleeding.
