A couple of days ago, the Marvel Cinematic Universe premiered another of its star trailers. The next thing about Thor under the fourth film of the character, the only one of the superheroes of the house that has reached that number. In the trailer for Thor: love and thunder many details to consider. Characters, scenes, villains… However, there is a detail that has caught the public’s attention. Thor naked before Zeus, the Greek god.
Thor’s nude is, in fact, the first that can be seen in any of the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies. But there is already controversy on the table. In the trailer, this image is censored. Thor’s ass appears pixelated during the seconds that the scene lasts. The question that fans are asking themselves is whether, at least in the film that is expected to be released on July 8, they will be able to see Chris Hemsworth’s Thor in full.
There are several points of view here. On the one hand, Marvel has kept a low profile with the complicated issues. This ensured them to be politically correct in all the countries where the film is shown in theaters. But since then, both Marvel and Disney have crossed red lines that they didn’t even dare to touch before. The image of Thor in the nude follows that of the first sex scene in eternal or that of a lesbian couple in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The latter meant that the film was banned in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait and Egypt unless the scene was removed. Marvel was blunt and maintained his position with the scene.
In any case, the scene is another point of humor in the film. At the image of Thor naked, both Valkyria and Jane have a conversation. “Should we help him?” Jane asks. “Yeah, eventually,” Valkyria points out as she offers him a grape. It is not the first time that an ass has been seen in any of the Marvel movies. already in Thor: Ragnarök you could see the Hulk. Of course, for fans of Chris Hemsworth this milestone goes up points.
Marvel hasn’t talked about whether or not it will keep Thor’s nude scene, which of course lacks any sexual overtones and is understood under the film’s humorous tone. Whether it will appear censored in all or some countries. Or if, in order to be able to broadcast the film in all regions, it will directly delete the scene.
