I imagine that was a first step forward to finding out more about themselves

Nah

Congrats, that's so tough to do.
Hope Elliot will be able to deal with the negative comments, because obviously some people have this weird thing of writing nasty comments on social media instead of moving on. I know Elliot will receive a lot of support too though!

Not gonna lie I saw this earlier but never knew who he used to be but I saw him on the news and I'm so happy for him, I remember how outspoken they were a few years ago and how much his words will have helped others

Jessica Meuse was robbed.

I'm not gonna lie it's gonna be ****ing weird to think of him playing Vanya in a potential season 3 of The Umbrella Academy considering that character is meant to be female.
He is definitely gonna have to ignore comments on the Internet though.

Considering the number of major trans characters played by cis actors in recent years (Jeffrey Tambor in Transparent, Jared Leto in Dallas Buyers Club, Eddie Redmayne in the Danish Girl), it's pretty fair and overdue for the tables to be turned

Bless him for coming out in adulthood and while his career has been going so well. I hope he ends up super happy, his wife seems supportive which is great.

Yeah, I think it's weirder for cis people to play trans characters.

To be fair, it's a show about time travel and super powers. It has a 50+ year old bloke who looks like a school boy. There are multiple ways they could change Vanya's gender... Either literally by supernatural means, or simply by having the character be trans. Or he might not be bothered about playing a female character. I'd assume they might consult him on his wishes.

Well they're old enough to make they're own mind up who or what they want to be I guess.

congrats and ignore social media for a while would also be my advice
ok now the controversial part (and pls don't call me transphobic cuz i'm not) it feels weird how now one of my fave video game characters (Beyond: Two Souls's Jodie, absolutely adore playing that game too btw) is transgender i wish him all the luck in the world though, and i hope he doesn't get too much nasty hate comments

When it comes to the Umbrella Academy, I suppose they'll probably have him play Vanya as a woman if he's comfortable for an episode or two until they can write it in.
If not, the show is about time travel and Season 3 looks to be about the butterfly effects of it, they could easily just say that one of the changes in the timeline is that Vanya's male in the new timeline. |

Elliot Page will continue to play the role of Vanya Hargreeves in “The Umbrella Academy,” the Netflix series about a family of superheroes that’s become one of the streaming service’s biggest hits.
Vanya is a cisgender woman whose superpower involves unleashing force through the use of sound. There are no plans to change the character’s gender, insiders told Variety. Page, star of films such as “Juno” and the X-Men series, announced he is a gender non-binary transgender person in a heartfelt social media message on Tuesday. Page’s credited name has already been updated on “The Umbrella Academy’s” IMDB page. Netflix is also in the process of updating Page’s name in the metadata across all titles he is involved with that are available to watch on the streaming service, another insider said. Those changes should start to be reflected throughout Tuesday. https://variety.com/2020/tv/news/ell...ix-1234843387/ |
