Kurt Sutter: My Mayans MC lines about Walt Disney being anti-Semitic and Mickey Mouse and Pluto being pedophiles didn't sit well with my new Disney bosses

Deadline

"Bottom line, I created the circumstances that led to my being forced out," the Sons of Anarchy creator and Mayans MC co-creator tells Deadline. "I overestimated my value and underestimated the unf*ckability of the mouse. I feel the way they expedited and qualified the move, was unfair, but the truth is, it was not a good fit and I had to go." Of his relationship with Disney souring, Sutter recalled "it all started with a joke" with him writing a line for J.D. Pardo's EZ saying, "Guess this is where Walt buried all the Jews he had killed" in response to a Disneyland comment. "So when I was informed that the Walt, Jew killing line had to go, I agreed and changed it to…We’re going to Disneyland. And now EZ says, Yeah… if Mickey and Pluto were pedophiles," says Sutter. Meanwhile, Sutter is trying to find a way to get out of his Disney deal, which still has another year left.
