Hollywood can’t stop their need to make everything woke. In a new Scooby-Doo cartoon movie on Prime Video, Velma comes out as a lesbian.
In a clip teasing the new movie, Velma’s interaction with a female costume designer, Coco Diablo, leaves Velma blushing and crushing on Coco.
Scooby-Doo premiered in CBS in 1969. For 53 years Velma was depicted as straight with frequent innuendos of a crush on her male cartoon co-star Shaggy.

James Gunn, who wrote two live-action Scooby-Doo films in the early 2000’s, claimed he tried to make Velma gay in his productions but the studio would not let him.
Insider reports:
A fan tweeted the “Guardians of the Galaxy” director on Monday asking him to “make our live-action lesbian Velma dreams come true.”
Gunn replied, confirming that it was his plan to make Velma “explicitly gay” in his “Scooby-Doo” script, but Warner Bros. resisted his attempts and slowly got rid of all mentions of Velma’s queerness.
Gunn wrote: “I tried! In 2001 Velma was explicitly gay in my initial script. But the studio just kept watering it down and watering it down, becoming ambiguous (the version shot), then nothing (the released version), and finally having a boyfriend (the sequel).”
Tony Cervone, a supervising producer on the films confirmed Gunn’s decades long intentions.
