Billy Porter and Tiffany Haddish star in Like a Boss. GLAAD called Porter's character, Barrett, "a good example of casual inclusion, featuring an explicitly LGBTQ character." LGBTQ characters took up a little more space in the movies in 2020. According to GLAAD's annual Studio Responsibility Index, there was an increase in the percentage of films with LBGTQ characters. A good portion of these were serious, substantial characters, too — 80% of these movies had LGBTQ characters with more than 10 minutes of screen time. The group found that the percentage of LGBTQ characters of color also rose. These numbers show a positive trend when it comes to LGBTQ representation in film, but there is, of course, a huge grain of salt: The pandemic shook the movie industry, affecting theatrical distribution. So the 2020 study only looks at 44 films, compared with the previous year's 118. And as such, the group decided to do away with its usual 5-star grading scale this year.
