Insider: Brie Larson will play the first lesbian superhero in the MCU

It’s no secret that Marvel Studios wants to introduce superheroes with non-traditional sexual orientation (LGBTK +) in his MCU. However, it was unclear who exactly would be the stake.

According to an insider Daniel Richtman, the first openly lesbian superheroine in cinematic universe will become Captain Marvel performed by Brie Larson… Before that, there was a rumor that in the film “Eternal“(Eternals) characters Fastos and Hercules will be gay.

Richtman confirms another rumor, according to which in the fourth phase it is the Captain who will become the key character in the fourth phase. According to preliminary data, she will lead the updated squad Avengers

Larson herself is promoting the idea of ​​a film that will feature exclusively female superheroes. In addition, she demands that Hollywood put more emphasis on gender diversity.

According to a number of publications, for the film “Captain Marvel 2“(Captain marvel 2) Brie Larson can receive up to $ 15 million, which will be her largest fee. The actress also recently hinted that she is a lesbian.

IN Marvel comics Carol Danvers (Captain Marvel) has long been a lesbian. The artists try to emphasize this (short hair, musculature, and so on), which has become the subject of numerous jokes. The fact is that due to the mediocre performance of the Captain in the comics, it sometimes looks like a masculine creature.

The difficulty lies in the fact that for Disney China remains an extremely important market, where an LGBTQ superhero movie could be banned. This is relevant for Russia, where propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations among minors is prohibited at the legislative level.

Therefore, censoring regional versions of Marvel films will be inevitable. Before Disney have already been criticized for trying to sit on two chairs.

So, the company got scared to make Princess Elsa in the cartoon “Frozen 2“(Frozen ii) lesbian. A number of other use cases can be recalled:

  • a scene with a fleeting kiss of two women against a blurred background in the final of the film “Star Wars: Skywalker. Sunrise“(Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker), which was not even noticed by everyone, was removed in Singapore;
  • minor LBGTK character in the cartoon “Forward“(Onward) From the studio Pixar (cyclopsha lesbian Spectrum) Re-dubbed in Russia;
  • film “The beauty and the Beast“(Beauty and the beast) in Russia received a rating of 16+ due to a hint of falling in love LeFou in Gaston, deputies of the State Duma also demanded to check the tape for compliance with the law;
  • in the film version “Avengers Endgame“(Avengers: endgame) for Russia, a scene was redone in which one of the film directors Joe Russo played a gay.
