According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Chloe Zhao-directed film will be not released in the aforementioned territories due to the inclusion of Marvel’s first ever gay superhero Phastos (Brian Tyree Henry).
Eternals also features Marvel’s first big-screen queer couple, and in one scene, Phastos reportedly shares a “passionate kiss” with his husband Jack (Haaz Sleiman).
THR states that a number of “edits” were requested from cinema chains in the Gulf regions to Disney, who were not willing to comply.
Homosexuality is still criminalised in many Middle Eastern regions, and is even punishable by death in Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
