if you guys don't understand the outrage, please watch Disclosure
ion need Halle playing a trans, gon start questioning s***.
would still smash eem if she was fr a trans.
I think it's fine for a cis person to portray a trans person on screen though I also believe they should be educated on trans issues/strugles and the experience of trans people
Halle's comments (though most likely mistaken) were very much so problematic and as such I think she should be able to be given time to grow and learn on these topics before portraying such a roll
but couldnt that learning happen through playing the role itself?
I sympathize with this sentiment
Im sure our transgendered fellow citizens want first and foremost things like healthcare and safety to live but representation is important to.
Why not holly wood start hiring trans actors in general bcus to me that seems the issue. The jobs are scarce and the few go to cis people.
Im sure in a world where trans actors played cis characters and were more represented no one would care about a cis actor playing a trans character
But also they have to be realistic...they’re like less than 1% of the population. Ive literally never met a trans person irl lol. Idk how much “representation” they expect.
I sympathize tho
Just cast a transman
Is this rocket science
He’s no longer a woman so is it okay for him to portray the character before they transition?
Can this character only be played by someone who is actually transitioning during filming?
america cares more about transgender ppl than its homeless population lol
America doesn't care about either

Show me a single trans actor that could sell a movie off their name
Hard to pitch a movie with a no name unproven actor to a studio. Also trans people make a very small percentage of the people in the world, the chance that 1 is a actor on the level of Halle Berry is low.
All they're doing is ensuring that these movies never get made.
True
Still calling the character a woman and female shows that she rly has no business playing a trans character
U should cry about it on ktt

You lowkey pointing out a massive problem in the film industry itself that should be called out frequently.

Well its kind of hard for transmen actors to get a bigger name for themselves if you don't put them in movies.

Well i was thinking that too but then i thought maybe that person was already identifying as a man. And with that being said I think having a trans person play someone who is transitioning is better. But im not trans and shouldn't be speaking for them
