Clips from Scooby-Doo! The trick or treat that hit the direct-to-video market this week shows Velma in love with Coco Diablo, a fashion designer who’s reluctant to work with the Scooby Gang. Later, Velma confesses her love for Daphne, finally boiling it down to a joke that “she didn’t know convicted criminals were [her] type.” This came after years of speculation as to whether Velma might be bisexual or lesbian. The creators have already tried to make the main character of Scooby Doo belong to the LGBTQ + community. This also includes James Gunn, who wrote the franchise’s 2000s live-action movies and who tweeted in 2020 that he wanted to make Velma clearly a lesbian.
In 2001, Velma was clearly homosexual in my initial script. But the studio was just still hesitant about the idea, the filmed version was presented in a vague manner. However, the version released did not indicate anything, and in the sequel Velma had a boyfriend.
Additionally, producer overseeing Scooby Doo and the Detective Brigade Tony Cervone posted an Instagram post in 2020 revealing that his serial version of Velma was also a lesbian, even as she canonically entered into a relationship with Shaggy.
I’ve already mentioned it, but Velma in Scooby Doo and the Detective Brigade is not bisexual. She is homo. We always planned for Velma to go a little out of the box when she was dating Shaggy because the relationship was bad for her and she had unspeakable difficulties as to why. There are clues to this theme in the episode with the mermaid, and if you follow the whole story of Marta it seems as clear as we could have done 10 years ago. I don’t think Marta and Velma have time to react to their feelings during the main timeline, but they are a couple. Some may not like this, but that was our intention.
