The actress formerly known as Ellen Page announced that she was changing her name to Elliot in December 2020. Since that announcement, Page has become Hollywood’s most visible transgender celebrity. At the time, she found immediate industry support from the writers of the show The Umbrella Academy, who rewrote her character as trans mid-series. But she hasn’t landed a post-switch role in a big tentpole film until now, with her casting in Christopher Nolan’s forthcoming Odyssey.
Transgender actress Elliot Page claims it’s “ABSURD” that people think animals cannot be queer and LGBTQI+.
“Looking at nature as some cis hetero patriarchal structure is absurd. This gender binary that we’ve created is nothing but a quaint little myth.” pic.twitter.com/6BtI3TahDP
