“Judy Holliday’s first three starring roles were directed by gay director, George Cukor. She won the Best Actress Academy Award in 1951 for the second of these, Born Yesterday. According to one biography, her career suffered greatly because of her bisexuality. She was one of the many performers banned from working in Hollywood and television due to the McCarthy witch-hunts.”
-Excerpt from Bisexual Characters in Film From Ana’s to Zee by Wayne M Bryant
“Although Katharine Hepburn was briefly married to the socialite Ludlow Ogden Smith, by the time her Hollywood career took off, they were divorced and she was free to romp around with the likes of Laura Harding, Nancy Hamilton, Frances Rich, and Phyllis Wilbourn. Phyllis was perhaps her greatest love, having stayed together with Katharine for nearly thirty years and being described by Katharine as “my Alice B. Toklas,” who was a lesbian icon and lifelong wife of Gertrude Stein. Katharine also had a twenty-year-long relationship with the actor Spencer Tracy, but the validity of that relationship has come into question in recent years, with even gay icon and AIDS activist Larry Kramer proclaiming in 2015 that ‘Hepburn and Spencer Tracy were both gay…they were publicly paired together by the studio. Everyone in Hollywood knows this is true.’”
I mean, on the one hand there’s some lovely parallelism in Natasha’s first supporting appearance being in an Iron Man film and Tony/RDJ returning the gesture.
On the other hand, why.
Seriously: Do we think it’s a flashback? Nat observing things pre-IM2? Flashbacks TO IM2? Something between the movies? Learning that even if Steve and Tony weren’t in touch between Civil War and Endgame, Tony and Nat were? Or something in the afterlife?
Talk this through with me, I don’t know what emotions to have.

For those who do not know, Mitth’raw’nurodo, better known as Thrawn, was a Legends continuity character whom recently just made his official canon appearance on Star Wars: Rebels. There has been speculation about the infamous Imperial Grand Admiral’s return, to the big screen for the first time, in the upcoming final chapter to the Sequel Trilogy, the untitled Episode IX. Rumors suggest that casting for this character is by Richard E. Grant, gained recognition for his portrayal of the character John Steward in Bram Stoker’s Dracula.He has also appeared as the main protagonist in Logan and made an appearance in Game of Thrones.
Here is a short backstory to Thrawn-
Thrawn is a Chiss, an alien race native to the Unknown Regions that, at the time of the Imperial Era, was vast uncharted space. The Galactic Empire was highly xenophobic and was only comprised of Humans, while several alien species were either enslaved or their worlds/governments were used as puppet states holding very little or no powers at all, however, Emperor Palpatine considered Thrawn to be the only exception. Thrawn was known for his brutality that matched the Emperor’s to a certain degree and was an indirect rival of Darth Vader’s. He was a military genius who built a philosophy of understanding his enemie’s philosophies and art. He had risen through the Imperial hierarchy to the status of Grand Admiral and commanded the Seventh Fleet.
Before he dissapeared, Thrawn’s knowlege of his home system allowed the Imperial Remnants to escape into the Unknown Regions after the Battle of Jakku. To that end, it was Thrawn who made the First Order’s existance a reality.
Given that, Thrawn playing a pivotol role in the First Order’s rise to power and insuring the survival of the New Order, could he make his return in Episode IX? For those who watched Rebels, his fate was left uncertain, so it is possible his return could play an important role in the plot for IX.
