Disney has dropped a transgender storyline from its upcoming animated Pixar series “Win or Lose,” a spokesperson confirmed to Fox News Digital Tuesday.
Pixar Animation Studios’ “Win or Lose,” “follows a co-ed middle-school softball team named the Pickles in the week leading up to their championship softball game,” according to The Hollywood Reporter, which first broke the news about the changes made to the show.
Disney confirmed that lines of dialogue referencing a character’s gender identity were removed from later episodes in the show.
“A source close to Win or Lose said the studio made the decision to alter course several months ago,” THR reported.
A spokesperson for the media company said in a statement that the changes were made in deference to parents who would prefer to address those sorts of topics with their children on their own.
