Are you ready for same-sex attracted Star Wars?
This is an interesting conversation to me, because 95% of the Star Wars characters are completely devoid of sexuality. Aside from the dramatized relationship between Han and Leia, and some little female objectification from Lando and Jabba, there was nothing (and yes, I’m purposefully leaving out the “romance” between Anakin and Padme).

Abrams suggested that the decades-spanning franchise's omission of gay characters could be coming to an conclude, saying, “In the case of the LGBTQ community, it was important to me that people who go to see this production feel that they’re being represented in the film.”
