Elliot Page has announced that he is transgender ❤

A series of Tweets with usernames covered up, each replying to the last.
Um… is this an error? They put up a picture of Ellen Page. Typo maybe?
Not a typo, he’s Elliot Page
I’m not sure I understand. Please explain?
I’m gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you’re well intentioned lol. His name used to be Ellen Page but he has come out as a trans gender man, so now his name is Elliot Page. They’re the same person
OH! Oh okay - I’m new to this. I didn’t understand what was happening. Thank you for explaining. I thought it was some new meme that I missed out on.
In that case, I’m going to join everyone else and say that I am very happy for Elliot Page. I’ve always been a huge fan of his.
It will be interesting to see if they make Inception 2 (or one of the other movies) and then still cast Elliot.
Juno 2
JUNiOr 2. The first sequel to two movies!
Hopefully Arnold, Danny and Cera reprise their roles.
There’s no rule saying he can’t play female characters anymore, particularly if he is reprising a previous role. Whether or not he wants to is a different story.
True that is also an option, else I was thinking about Inception 2 where they could include in the script that Ariadne also transitioned.
Yeah, I see no problem with any recurring character he plays in the future that he last portrayed pre-transition being trans. If anything it’s nice to see characters where the fact that they’re trans is just a characteristic of them rather than the whole point of their existence in the story.
