It's not grammatically correct, but the word 'yaaaaassss' comes to mind when we heard that Tessa Thompson would be playing Marvel's first openly-gay superhero character. However, it was announced at #Comicon that #Thor4 Love and Thunder would be premiering in 2021.
Marvel has promised plenty of times that there would be LGBT representation and its only ended it up in cut-out scenes or vague character comments. Tessa Thompson took it a step further and said in front of 7000 people that as King of Asgard she's on the lookout for a #queen.
So how about it ladies? Who wants to be #Queen?
