Nicky X Joe - Blog Posts

On a scale of Louis/Lestat to Joe/Nicky, how toxic are your immortal husbands?

Nicky and Joe from The Old Guard is the ultimate gay Enamies to lovers couple.

From killing each other in the crusades, and for about 100 years after that, to loving hitmen/soldier husbands in the movie. If anyone wants to write fanfics I’m here for it.

(I want to read a book about them! Like how the hell did Andy get them to stop killing each other and how did their relationship start?)

Also breaking the chain of “all Asians are the same” by changing Noriko to Quyn, because the actress is Vietnamese not Japanese.

A gay Italian character who is not stereotyped. 

A gay Arab character who is also not stereotyped. 

Neither of them fetishized. 

Both of them bad ass as fuck. 

And they’re in one of the healthiest relationships, queer or not, I’ve ever seen in an action movie.

Two female leads, one of them Black, neither of them sexualized. 

 Not even ONCE. 

 Both of them bad ass as fuck. 

And they both have space to be their own characters, with their own arcs.

Directed by a Black woman. 

Edited by a Black woman. 

 Actual MAIN //obviously// Gay characters in a superhero/comic movie? (Not relegated to cameo status, take notes Marvel!) 

 I’m sorry I can’t shut up about this movie. 

I’m just so fucking INTO everything it’s about! 

(Edit: I was too excited to think while I wrote this and but now it’s doing numbers and everyone is yelling at me asking what the name of the movie is lol. It’s The Old Guard, it’s on Netflix and came out a week ago.)
