ABC won’t air the new Carol trailer unless the nude scene is edited
Like an artist asked to divide the human body into two unequal parts, ABC is drawing the line at nipples. The Disney-owned network has rejected the trailer for the Cate Blanchett-starring lesbian drama Carol, thanks to a nude scene between Blanchett and co-star Rooney Mara. The network has requested that The Weinstein Company submit a cut that “provides more coverage” for its two lead actresses if it wants its ads to run alongside wholesome family fare like Grey’s Anatomy or Scandal.
