So when Portman swore durg a Q&A at the London premiere of her latt film, Thor: Love and Thunr, that Marvel’s newt offerg is “so gay,” my tert was immediately piqued—and while I hadn’t seen a Marvel film sce 2018’s Black Panther, I had to know whether Thor 4 would be an entry to the queer cematic non à la Moonlight, Carol, and the Nile Kidman AMC ad.So off to the ceplex I went, tstg Natalie Portman spe mors that Thor: Love and Thunr might not be as gay as she claimed. Thor: Love and Thunr was directed by Taika Wai, whose queer, pirate HBO Max show, Our Flag Means Death, certaly cross the thrhold of “so gay.” Bisexual actor Tsa Thompson went on rerd at San Diego Comic-Con sayg that she wanted to fd her character Valkyrie, the female Kg of Asgards, a queen the next film.
