One of the main highlights of the narrative of X-Men 2, Alan Cumming also commented on how the film is the ‘gayest one I’ve ever made’
One of the most acclaimed and striking films in the superhero genre Hollywood, X-Men 2 “is a queer allegory,” according to Alan Cumminginterpreter of Nocturnal in the film directed by Bryan Singer and released on May 1, 2003 in Brazilian cinemas.
During an interview with Comicbook.comthe artist commented how much he likes the symbolism LGBTQIA+ that production brings. “It was the gayest movie I’ve ever made. It has a queer director, a lot of queer actors,” she said. “I love that something so mainstream and so immersed in the world of comics is so queer.”
“In a way, films like X-Men always help people understand their identity and gender issues, because you can approach it in an artistic way, and everyone is less scared by the concept,” he continued Cumming.
It’s an allegory for the queer world, about people who have talents and are incredible, powerful, but who need to hide their existence. Queer people understand what this is about.
