VELMA IN ‘SCOOBY-DOO’ JAMES GUNN WANTED HER ‘EXPLICITLY GAY’ … Claims Studio Blocked It

“Scooby-Doo” sleuth Velma is a lesbian — at least according to writer/director James Gunn, who says she was definitely gay in his initial 2002 movie script.

Before the filmmaker rose to the ranks of director of the “Guardians of the Galaxy” films, he wrote the screenplays for the live-action “Scooby-Doo” and its 2004 sequel, ‘Monsters Unleashed’ … and he says he intended for Velma to be “explicitly gay.”

Gunn was replying to a fan on Twitter asking him to return to the franchise and make a live-action Velma gay … he claims he already tried it.
