And even though Dani died, her death had nothing to do with her sexuality — she wasn't killed off for that reason. The plot around Ma wasn't something you'd typically expect to see in a movie and helped explore another side of 'forbidden' love.
Toni was a character who was gaslit, betrayed, manipulated, and emotionally abused, but the show rarely depicted it as harmful because they always 'lovingly' got back together. With Jackson's permission, his likeness was used for the Ultimate version of the Marvel Comics character, Nick Fury.
A list of the ten of the worst depictions of LGBT characters and the LGBT community in television and cinema. Please proceed with caution. Jean's response was something those same ace kids wish they had heard at that age, too — it was short, but realistic and meaningful, and I cannot explain how validating it felt to watch even as an adult.
Jackson usually played bad guys and drug addicts before becoming an action hero, co-starring with Bruce Willisin Die Hard with a Vengeance ()and Geena Davisin The Long Kiss Goodnight ().
