Do we want to do it as a streamer? In theatres? Animation has been the slowest to come back to theatres. But now that [ages] five and up are getting vaccinated [in America], the business might resume. We’re in a wait-and-see mode. But there’s definitely the germ of something there."

Dear Fonseca
Some parents at my daughter's elementary school are trashing me online because I have been posting pictures of myself in my new bathing suits and my new workout wear. I've gotten in great shape and am looking forward to going to the Bahamas during my daughter's Winter break. The other parents say I shouldn't be wearing clothing that is so revealing because it does not reflect well on me or my daughter. One woman even called me a TRAMP. I disagree with what everybody is saying. I think posting pictures like this shows nothing, but confidence. I want my daughter to be confident and feel that showing off your body is a positive, not a negative. I have to be honest, the other parents are in my head. Who's right ... me or them? Is it wrong that I am posting pictures wearing hardly any clothing?
