The first — and, so far, last — gay breakthrough romance is still 2005’s “Brokeback Mounta. One reason for the ristance to gay characters is that Hollywood is heavily reliant on box office om Cha, where attus about homosexualy are ls tolerant. When Andrew Garfield suggted a 2013 terview that Spir-Man uld be gay, the creative team at Sony didn’t exactly endorse that ia for the upg reboot.
'DEADPOOL 2' IS THE GAYT SUPERHERO MOVIE YET. THAT'S NOT SAYG MUCH.
Northstar (Jean-Pl Bebier) is probably the most famo (and the first Marvel ics history) openly gay superhero many dienc might never have heard of. Back then, ic would not have allowed an openly gay character, so creator John Byrne had hts through meetg a ‘special iend’ named Raymon Belmon. Bryne even went on to fend his actns, sayg that “there need to be gays ics bee there are gays real life.
Wh hts of mutants and the X-Men jog the MCU soon the form of The Mutants, perhaps Marvel should give this historil gay character a chance on the big screen. Jean Grey reads a teenaged time-displaced Iceman and outs him as gay.
If this were ma to a gay Marvel film would surely be one of the worst g-out films of all time.
