The LGBTQ+ movement so pushed in the US, is not embraced by Middle Eastern Countries.

The Brief Kiss That Got Lightyear Banned In 14+ Countries!

Lightyear – the long-awaited Toy Story prequel from Disney-Pixar – has been banned in 14 Asian and Middle Eastern countries, and quite likely China too!

The ban started in the UAE, whose Media Regulatory Office of the Ministry of Youth and Culture announced on 13 June 2022 that Lightyear was banned from screening in all cinemas for “its violation of the country’s media content standards“.

A Variety report claimed that the UAE initially approved Lightyear for release, but revoked the licence after social media posts accused the movie of insulting Muslims and Islam.

That ban was then followed by other countries. The current list includes, but is not limited to :

• United Arab Emirates
• Saudi Arabia
• Egypt
• Indonesia
• Malaysia
• Singapore
• Lebanon
• Oman
• Qatar
• Kuwait
• Bahrain

Although not confirmed yet, it is very likely that Lightyear will also not be allowed to screen in China.
