CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

Deadline reports:

It is a small moment but a milestone nonetheless in such a global appeal blockbuster. Avengers: Endgame introduces the first openly gay character to ever appear in a Disney/Marvel movie. That character isn’t a superhero, and he is played in an early scene by Joe Russo, who co-directed with brother Anthony Russo.

The character is an average guy who is part of a support group of people trying to move on from the grief of losing loved ones who vanished at the end of Avengers: Infinity War at the hands of Thanos. He talks about going on his first date since losing his male partner. It’s as simple as that, a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment.
