“Avengers: Endgame” Features Marvel’s First Openly Gay Character In A Small Role
He teased that this LGBT representation would come in the form of"both [characters] you’ve seen and ones you haven’t seen."isn't much, the Russo brothers said they still believe it's important.
“We wanted it to be casual, with the fact that the character is gay tied into the fabric of the storytelling and representing what everyday life is,” Joe told Deadline. “We’re trying to represent everyone in everyday life. These are global movies that reach a lot of people. They are important to a lot of people and everyone has the right to see themselves on the screen and identify somewhere.”
Anthony Russo told Deadline the moment was also important for world-building and to show the extent of Thanos's devastation. "When you have a story point that includes killing half of all humans on Earth, you’re telling a bigger story than the Avengers," he said."So that scene was important to us in telling the story of the larger world."
The brothers said they've already noticed fans responding to the moment in countries where LGBT rights are more repressed than in the West.
