It looks like we have a new LGBTQ+ character to add<\/a> to the very short list of Christmas movie queers this year! In the trailer for the upcoming family comedy Oh. What. Fun., we learn a lot about the \u201cClauster\u201d family. Claire (Michelle Pfeiffer) is an overworked and underappreciated mother and grandmother trying to get ready for the holiday season. In the trailer, we see Chlo\u00eb Grace Moretz\u2019s character, Taylor, announce that her girlfriend is vegan, something she could have told her mother before she planned a sirloin for dinner.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not clear if we ever get to meet this girlfriend though, because Christmas plans go off the rails when Claire is left behind for a family outing and decides to venture to Eva Longoria\u2019s talk show on her own to enter her Holiday Moms dance contest. In the trailer we also get glimpses of other queer actors besides Moretz (though it\u2019s unclear how they fit into this massive family just yet): Devery Jacobs will play a character named Donna, and Havana Rose Liu will be Lizzie Wang-Wasserman.<\/p>\n

While this very much does not seem like queerness will be at the forefront of this movie, it is nice to be included in these kinds of family movies. Families that big statistically have to have at least one gay cousin (my family has like\u20266) so it\u2019s nice to see queerness represented in a historically straight movie genre.<\/p>\n

Hopefully there will be more queer-centric holiday movies in our future (I know of at least one coming out this year: The Christmas Baby starring Kat Barrell and Ali Liebert<\/a>) but other htan that I guess we have to rewatch Happiest Season and hope Abby picks the right woman this time.<\/p>\n
