Pixar reportedly changed aspects of Riley's character in Inside Out 2 due to the backlash against Lightyear's same-sex kiss. When the trailers for Inside Out 2 were released, there was speculation about Riley being gay and romantically interested in Val, but this possibility was not explored in the sequel.
According to sources who spoke with IGN, edits were made to depict Riley as "less gay" due to fears grounded in Lightyear's backlash and box office disappointment. This included an emphasis on making Riley and Val's relationship as platonic as possible and even adjusting the lighting of certain scenes to avoid any connotations of "romantic chemistry."
