The National Film and Video Censors Board (NFVCB) has reportedly placed a ban on Marvel’s gay movie titled ‘Eternals’- an American superhero film based on a Marvel Comics race of the same name.
The movie produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney, which depicted a character as gay, was slated to premiere this weekend but has been yanked from cinema schedules.
According to reports, the NFVCB, in a circular, directed cinema owners to yank off the film, which is slated to debut on November 5, from screening schedules.
