In celebration of Pride Month, Disney+ has revealed the trailer for the upcoming film "Trevor: The Musical."

As he deals with becoming a teenager in 1981, Trevor struggles to navigate his own identity and determine how he fits in a challenging world. When an embarrassing incident at school suddenly puts him under the wrong spotlight, Trevor must summon the courage to forge his own path.

A deeply moving and funny story of self-discovery and the power of acceptance, "Trevor: The Musical" is about living your best life with lots of passion... and a touch of pizzazz. The musical is based on the 1995 Academy Award-winning short film "Trevor" which ultimately inspired the nonprofit organization The Trevor Project.
