Getty Images The first trailer of Thor Love and Thunder has arrived, teasing the dynamic between Thor and the Guardians of the Galaxy and giving fans their first official look at Natalie Portman’s Lady Thor. Taika Waititi’s distinctive sense of humor shines through the trailer and a particular scene caught the attention of fans, causing mass ridicule for MCU actor Chris Pratt. In the trailer, Pratt’s Star-Lord gives his team a lively speech, in which he states that he is inspired by looking into the eyes of the people you love, leading to an awkward moment with Thor looking into Star-Lord’s eyes. Disney fans, thirsting for queer representation, immediately realized that the scene would inspire admiring writers and artists to imagine the two characters having sex. On Twitter, this led to a massive mockery of Pratt, as fans imagined his hassle filming the scene. Pratt, who has never spoken publicly about his political beliefs, is widely regarded as socially conservative and possibly anti-LGBT because of his faith in Zoe Church, an evangelical church whose pastor, Chad Veach, once produced a film that refers to the same – sexual attraction as a form of “sexual breakage”. On Instagram, Pratt posted enthusiastic support for the police, prompting fans to call Pratt “the worst Chris.” Actor Eliot Page referred to Pratt’s relationship with Zoe Chert on Twitter, writing: “If you are a famous actor and you belong to an organization that hates a certain group of people, do not be surprised if someone just wonders why they are not treated.” Pratt responded defensively, writing on Instagram: “I’m going to a church that opens its doors to everyone.” No matter what Pratt really believes behind closed doors, young, socially conscious MCU fans have already decided, perhaps convinced by Pratt’s vibes, and not by unshakable evidence. The actor tends to play obnoxious, annoyingly honest characters, who may have contributed to his image as an unknown uncle in a MAGA hat. As a result, fans happily mocked Pratt on Twitter, encouraged by the fact that Peter Quill, or Star-Lord, was recently revealed to be bisexual in Marvel comics. Thor himself, actor Chris Hemsworth, remains beloved by Marvel fans, probably because he keeps his beliefs, religious or otherwise, to himself.
