Marvel CEO Pledges Gays and Lesbians in Upcoming Films
The head of the Marvel studio Kevin Feige did not rule out the appearance in future comic book adaptations of characters of non-traditional sexual orientation. As reported by Collider, he spoke about this at a press conference dedicated to the release of the movie "Ant-Man". Answering a question from one of the journalists about the likelihood of such a development of events, Feige said: "Over the next ten years? Yes, most likely." According to the head of Marvel, usually what happens in comics hits screens after 5-10 years. "For example, this is exactly the endurance of the events of the" Civil War ", the" Winter Soldier "has about the same period. We always watch what is happening and reflect upon when we can show it to the audience," he added. Note that in recent years, Marvel and rival company DC Comics presented several gay characters at once or confirmed their bisexuality. In particular, DC Comics has already released series in which Green Lantern was gay, and Catwoman was also officially bisexual. At the time of this writing, such characters have not appeared in the movie adaptations of popular comics. Recall that the US Supreme Court made a historic decision in the summer of 2015, allowing same-sex marriage throughout the country.
