Hallmark announces plans to debut ‘LGBTQ storylines, characters and actors’ | GMA
Hallmark movies will be more diverse in the near future.
On Thursday, amid criticism that none of the company’s 40 upcoming holiday movies feature an LGBTQ lead, a Hallmark Channel spokesperson told “Good Morning America” that change is coming.
In the coming months, the representative said, Hallmark will make announcements about “projects featuring LGBTQ storylines, characters and actors.”
“Diversity and inclusion is a top priority for us,” read the company’s statement. “We are committed to creating a Hallmark experience where everyone feels welcome.”
