Sequel of 'Doctor Strange' is set to release on May 6 and the film has been banned in Saudi Arabia. See what the lead actor Benedict Cumberbatch has to say about it.
Actor Benedict Cumberbatch will be seen in Marvel바카라s upcoming 바카라Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness바카라 playing the lead. The film is slated to hit the cinemas on May 6. There were reports previously that the film has been banned in Saudi Arabia. However, it is now clear that Saudi Arabia has asked Disney to cut the references of the LGBTQ from the film revolving around the lesbian character, America Chavez, in the film.
The Guardian reported that these cuts are only 12 seconds long. Disney has denied this request and Cumberbatch said that the entire scenario is an expected disappointment.
A video wherein Cumberbatch is addressing this issue in the press tour in London is going viral on Twitter.
In the video, the actor says, "It is, I바카라m afraid, an expected disappointment. We바카라ve come to know from those repressive regimes that their lack of tolerance is exclusionary to people who deserve to be, not only included, but celebrated for who they are and made to feel part of a society and a culture and not punished for their sexuality. It feels truly out of step with everything that we바카라ve experienced as a species, let alone where we바카라re at globally more as a culture, but frankly it바카라s just even more reason why this isn바카라t tokenism to include an LGBTQ+ community member.바카라
He further added about the character of Chavez and said, "This character is that from the comics. It바카라s not something we바카라ve created for the sake of diversity. We바카라ve included her because of how awesome she is as a character. And that바카라s just one aspect of her character and that바카라s all it should be, but sadly, it바카라s also now, politically, very charged. And I wish it wasn바카라t.바카라
He then commended both Disney and Marvel by saying, "I wish we could be having a normalized conversation about this where it wasn바카라t an issue but we바카라re not. So we still have to fight. We still have to push for inclusion and equality and I바카라m very glad in a small, but on a very big canvas, Marvel and Disney are doing that.바카라
바카라Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness바카라 is the sequel of 바카라Doctor Strange바카라 that released in 2016.
