WATCH: Tessa Thompson’s Queer Superhero Valkyrie Rejoins MCU in ‘The Marvels’

The Marvels

Could this be the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s (MCU) first big gay superhero couple?

Tessa Thompson’s queer superhero character Valkyrie has come back in the new ‘The Marvels’ movie.

‘The Marvels’ which will be shown on November 10 in cinemas will feature Thompson’s Valkyrie, a beloved queer character in the MCU.

In the 2-minute preview released on November 8, fans can see a glimpse of her wearing a grey suit and talking to Captain Marvel played by Brie Larson. “You can stand tall without standing alone,” Valkyrie tells her friend.

Watch the trailer below:

While fans have been hoping for Valkyrie and Captain Marvel to get together for years, Marvel has yet to make their dreams come true and has not announced plans for their romantic line.

Fret not though, because it seems like both Larson and Thompson are on board with getting the ship sailing. In 2019, Larson shared a fanart of the two characters on X (formerly known as Twitter) with the caption, “We cute.”

Meanwhile, Thompson has previously talked about the ship to  the LA Times and shared that “it’s time” for Valkyrie and Captain Marvel to finally get together, saying “I don’t even know what happens in the canon in terms of those characters or if they ever intersect, but I just love the idea of more women Marvel characters getting to intersect.”

At this point in the MCU, Valkyrie is one of the most prominent LGBTQ+ characters, including Korg (Taiki Waititi), Ayo (Florence Kasumba), Phastos (Bryan Tyree Henry), Aneka (Michaela Coel), and Loki (Tom Hiddleston).

‘The Marvels’ also stars Teyonah Parris, Iman Vellani, and Zawe Ashton.
