But the studio just kept watering it down and watering it down, becoming ambiguous (the version shot), then nothing (the released version) and finally having a boyfriend (the sequel),\u201d Gunn spoke highly of the project.<\/p>\n<p>Gellar confirmed the vision during the \u201cAfter Show\u201d portion of Cohen\u2019s \u201cWatch What Happens Live\u201d \u2014 saying, \u201cThere was a steamy kiss. It got cut. There was an actual kiss between Daphne and Velma that got cut. I feel like the world wants to see it. I don\u2019t know where it is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH:<\/strong><\/p>\n[embedded content]\n<p>According to Gellar, the entire movie had been pitched to the main actors \u2014 also including Matthew Lillard as \u201cShaggy\u201d \u2014 as \u201cless family friendly\u201d The animated series has been around for a long time. Gellar saw this as a selling point.<\/p>\n<p>She also recalled one specific line that had been cut \u2014 a line that had cast ambiguity over Fred\u2019s sexuality \u2014 that she was supposed to deliver during a fight with Prinze Jr.\u2019s character.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was a great line too that I\u2019ll never forget. Daphne and Fred were having a fight and I yell at him, \u2018That ascot makes you look gay!\u2019 I slam the door [at him]. They cut that, too,\u201d Gellar said. \u201cI think that was the reason I signed onto the movie. It\u2019s something everyone\u2019s thought for a long time. There\u2019s always been an implication about Fred being interested in both parties. It all got cut.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/mindy-kalings-scooby-doo-spinoff-velma-trashed-by-fans-saying-its-horrible-not-funny-at-all\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">new series<\/a>\u00a0HBOMax is called \u201cVelma\u201d and featuring actress Mindy Kaling, has taken Gunn\u2019s vision and applied it liberally, making the character openly gay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar revealed in a recent interview that she was supposed to kiss costar Linda Cardellini in the 2002 film \u201cScooby-Doo\u201d \u2014 but that the scene had been cut from the final release along with a joke \u201couting\u201d Freddie Prinze Jr.\u2019s character as potentially bisexual.
