I was supposed to play a gay man who struggles with who he is. In a superhero movie. No thanks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Washington wouldn\u2019t confirm exactly which character he was slated to \u201cout,\u201d but our experts have narrowed it down to either Thanos or Groot. \u201cThey\u2019re the only ones that make sense,\u201d said Marvel\u2019s Director of Operations Jo Barron, \u201cbut it wasn\u2019t them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So who was it? Marvel went through superheroes like PBR at a Trump rally for a while there. There\u2019s no telling how many of the characters may have been secretly gay. Some insisted that had Agent Carter met Black Widow in their primes that there could have been really good chemistry there, along with a scene probably not suited for a PG-13 movie.<\/p>\n<p>At any rate, Washington says there\u2019s no chance you\u2019ll see him working for the woke anytime soon. \u201cI do movies that win awards,\u201d said the superstar, \u201cRember the Titans? Yeah. You Remember the Titans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Washington currently has 11 awards from the Black Oscars he refuses to accept, as well as 3 regular Oscars he proudly displays on top of his refrigerator.
