And there’s one thing some fans are particularly excited about: Gwen Stacy – a Spider superhero in an alternative universe – might be transgender. “Trans (and even cis) fans have every right to say Gwen Stacy is trans, even if the movies never outright confirm it. But whether Gwen Stacy is actually trans isn’t the most important part, Tunnell said. The first movie, “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,” was praised at the time of its release for highlighting minority cultures. A third “Spider-Verse” film, “Beyond the Spider-Verse,” is set to be released next year.

Given Iranian female athletes always wear a hijab while competing abroad and Rekabi had previously done so herself, what appeared to be a daring political statement was widely noticed by Western media and Iranian observers. South Korea’s foreign ministry told NBC News that "it is understood that all members of the Iranian delegation including Elnaz Rekabi have already left (South) Korea" after attending the event. The International Federation of Sport Climbing said in a statement Tuesday that it has been in contact with Rekabi and the Iranian Climbing Federation. What Elnaz did contributes to breaking off the fear, and the authorities can’t tolerate it. The demonstrations that followed have developed into the most serious challenge to Iran’s government in more than a decade.
