But credit where credit is due, director Kevin Feige confirmed back in 2019 that Tessa Thompson's Valkyrie would be the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first LGBTQ+ superhero.
Fans had since joined the bandwagon for the Thompson-Larson couple making it to the silver screen. Thankfully, the duo reinforced their speculations during an appearance at the ACE Comic-Con event (via Them) in 2019.

To which came Larson’s now-legendary response: “How do I top ‘lesbians’?”
