Netflix\u2019s \u2018The Dark Crystal\u2019 Features Gay Dads<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Netflix recently dropped a sequel to the 1982 film The Dark Crystal<\/em> and fans are impressed at the series\u2019 casual inclusion of gay<\/a> dads. The detail is revealed as the show\u2019s heroine Gelfling is leaving the Caves of Grot for the first time and refers to her parents as her \u201cfathers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nathalie Emmanuel, who voices Deet, spoke to Metro about the show<\/a>: \u201cIt\u2019s an escape from the real world, but when you have the more grounded everyday shows, people we can see that as being real life and can relate to it. \u2018We can reflect society and people\u2019s issues back to them. It\u2019s nice to have a spectrum of genres.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

people big mad about the two gay<\/a> dads in The Dark Crystal for bringing \u2018politics\u2019 into a series that\u2019s unabashedly an allegory of the dangers of capitalistic greed, social heirarchies, and racism. also apart from that, they\u2019re puppets, my guy<\/a>. take several seats<\/p>\n
