Velma from the cartoon series ‘Scooby-Doo’ is officially a lesbian now. Clips from the new movie ‘Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo!’ which show the Mystery Inc member googly-eyed and speechless when encountering costume designer Coco Diablo, have gone viral on Twitter, confirming suspicions held by the “Scooby” fan base for decades, reports Variety.
“Omg lesbian Velma finally,” read one tweet, which has over 100,000 likes. It’s long been an open secret among fans and “Scooby-Doo” creatives that Velma is gay. According to Variety, even James Gunn, who wrote the early live-action films, and Tony Cervone, who served as supervising producer on the “Mystery Incorporated” series, have confirmed the character’s sexuality, but they were never able to make it official on screen.
In 2020, Gunn tweeted that he “tried” to make Velma a lesbian in the live-action movies. “In 2001 Velma was explicitly gay in my initial script,” he wrote. “But the studio...

Jinkies! Brainy Scooby Gang member Velma is finally allowed to be gay in the new Warner Bros. Animated movie “Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo!” Some fans couldn’t be happier after James Gunn‘s attempt 20 years ago was shot down.
Clips from the upcoming movie, which hit digital on Tuesday, show Velma, voiced by Kate Micucci, swooning over costume designer Coco Diablo (Myrna Velasco of “DC Super Hero Girls”) — her glasses steam up — and getting an enormous, goofy grin when Coco touches her shoulder.
A Twitter user named Trin tweeted, in all caps: “Omg Lesbian Velma Finally Canon Canon In The Movies Lets Goooooo.”

Velma is officially (and finally) queer onscreen.
Animated “Scooby Doo” Halloween film “Trick or Treat Scooby Doo!” includes a sequence where Velma meets costume designer Coco Diablo, and fans are already swooning over the sparks flying between the duo. The confirmation comes years in the making after live-action installments from writer James Gunn, and the animated “Mystery Incorporated” series, hinted at Velma’s sexuality. However, this is the first time the Hanna-Barbera character is overtly gay onscreen.
Gunn, who wrote “Scooby Doo” and “Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed,” tweeted that his film was originally rated by the MPAA as R, and eventually after a “bunch of stuff was changed,” got a PG rating. Some of what was edited out was Velma’s queer relationship. Back in 2020, Gunn confirmed that he “tried” to show Velma as a lesbian in the live-action films starring Linda Cardellini as the beloved character.

Yesterday (May 15th), Warner Bros. released Scoob! on VOD and fans have mixed feelings about it. There was a lot of hype for the animated flick, seeing as it’s the first big budget Scooby-Doo film since 2004, but now that it’s here a lot of people don’t know what to make of it.
WB is clearly hoping to launch a Hanna-Barbera cinematic universe off the back of this movie, with the film featuring many other classic cartoon characters such as Blue Falcon (Mark Wahlberg). Like in many of these cases, though, some viewers think the franchise-fuel gets in the way of what folks signed up for: a new adventure with Mystery Incorporated, here voiced by Will Forte (Shaggy), Zac Efron (Fred), Amanda Seyfried (Daphne) and Gina Rodriguez (Velma).
Here are just a few of the reactions going around on social media…
Just watched Scoob! Definitely have mixed feelings about this one.

“Scooby-Dooby-Doo, where are you?” It’s not only the refrain from the classic cartoon theme song of what is arguably Hanna-Barbera’s crown jewel, but it’s also a question many movie fans have been asking for years. Though the franchise has had plenty of hilarious and inventive modern reinterpretations along with loads of home video movie releases, it has been 16 years since the dog detective headlined a big budget Hollywood movie. So that’s why the announcement of a new animated feature, Scoob!, was so exciting. Like pretty much every movie this year, the Covid-19 crisis derailed this film’s hopes for a theatrical release, but Scoob! is still headed to our small screens and it’s a goofy and gorgeous good time.
It’s best to go into Scoob! with your expectations in the right place. This is a Scooby-Doo movie. As in, it’s a movie about Scooby-Doo.
