The voice cast has Gary Cole, David Harbour, Patti Harrison, Laurie Metcalf, Matt Rogers, and Wanda Sykes.
The creative team includes Gabe Liedman, Sean Hayes, and Michael Schur. It’s giving me very: Image via Twitter – the teaser trailer! The teaser trailer seems to be relying too much on problematic queer stereotypes and making Q-Force look like an animated series that’s going to offer a whole lot of ammo to anti-LGBTQ+ folk.įolk in the queer community have shared how this upcoming series seems to be catering to a “cisgender straight” audience the way wanting a “Gay Best Friend” and going “YASSS SLAY QUEEN” is a thing for certain cisgender straight people instead of them putting in the effort to understand the queer community and being an actual ally. There’s a difference between actual well-written queer representation and tokenization or exploitation. Studios spend millions of dollars to influence opinions before something is released and unfortunately it looks like the marking team dropped the ball on this one.Īs far as my opinion goes, I can understand the frustration people are sharing online.
Uhhh! That’s exactly what trailers and other marketing content are meant for. And before anyone comes at me with the usual, “But it’s just a trailer! You shouldn’t form an opinion so early!” However, my excitement is basically gone after watching the teaser trailer for Q-Force.
In a sense, with media being full of superhero and spy teams featuring cisgender heterosexual people, why can’t there be a team that includes only queer folk? Was I excited when Netflix decided to go ahead with Q-Force back in 2019? I sure was. However, the show is already being met with a lot of disdain online, with a number of people from the LGBTQ+ community calling the entire thing quite homophobic.
