Delta Air Lines said it would immediately begin showing versions of the films 'Booksmart' and 'Rocketman' that include scenes covering girls' sexuality and gay identity. The scenes had previously been omitted from in-flight showings.
The omitted material also included female masturbation and a scene where the girls watched porn, the director said.
"What message is this sending to viewers and especially to women?" Wilde said."That their bodies are obscene? That their sexuality is shameful?" Delta was previously criticized for running a version of the Elton John biopic"Rocketman" that excluded any reference to the singer's sexual orientation. It said that film studios"often" directly provide it with a choice of theatrical or edited versions of films.In its statement the airline said it had selected edited version of the films in question even though the omitted scenes would have met its standards. It did not say why this happened.
"The studio has agreed to provide a special Delta edit that retains the LGBTQ+ love scenes in both Booksmart and Rocketman that will be on our flights as soon as possible," Delta said. The carrier said it would institute a new process"immediately" to better manage in-flight entertainment.
