    I think they're all in pre-production or production. So no.

    We know what to expect from such people. It's just a matter of time and timing.

    Conversely, there's already some backlash from the transgender community because of fears that it'll just be another act of lip service and/or "Oh, we didn't mention it during the film but it's true!" which Marvel has unfortunately has a bad history with the LGTBQ community.

    Said backlash is from the radical extremists who because they can yell the loudest, are usually the ones who get heard; I'd like to hear from others in the LGBT community.

    Kind of feels like we are making and spreading those negative comments for them ourselves. Why do their work for them?

    I guess movies are a different bag but this is old news for DC on the TV side. I hate when it gets reduced to checkbox clicking announcements. “Movie X will have a blank” just feels shallow but maybe that’s privilege talking.

    Between the gay characters in the latest Star Wars and Marvel movies I really don‘t have a lot of faith in them to have a trans character that isn‘t extremely minor and can‘t be cut for foreign markets. That said, I may change my opinion depending on how Eternals handles it‘s gay character.

    For those who don't follow the link, now they are saying the "very soon" was about LGBTQ+ characters in general, and not a transgender character specifically.

    Let's indeed see if Marvel can (and will) do this well, before the bitching starts.

    Yeah, that will be an issue. Sadly true. To what degree, though...?

    Eh, maybe they'll pull a Fury Road and relocate filming to Africa?

    Fingers crossed on the full rights to Hulk and Namor. We can finally have a proper Defenders film! :D
