Four. Potentially five depending on his decision to go the full route.
Uhhh? Do you want to clarify what you mean by that?

There's shitloads of trans actors but Hollywood suits would rather cast the main familiar faces.
To a degree I'm willing to entertain the notion that because Hollywood is driven by fame and name recognition, you do need Name Actors to headline a big movie that gets a budget and released to a lot of theaters, and thus at times a cis actor will play a trans character. Like, y'know what, if you're at least putting the trans actors in notable roles around them so they can become name actors in time, perhaps that's a viable path forward.

But if we're gonna do it, for fuck's sake at least put cis actors in the correct genders. If ScarJo wants to play a trans woman and have a bunch of trans costars, she can knock herself out.

That would be something at least.

Four that identify as a woman. The fifth is a person who would you describe as a crossdresser but does it 24/7. Goes by a male name and male pronouns but has different names for whatever wig he will wear. We have told him to choose a name and stick to it, no one is going to remember a dozen names. That's as simple as I can make it.
I got nothing to say here.

Thanks I was worried by how you worded that.

What do you mean? Alot of of the trans community goes through a step before they go full trans where they are switching back and forth. That is what that person is at right now. Who knows maybe he likes it the way it is, and stays with it.

I think that might be called pansexual or something. Not sure.

Well, speaking as someone with no experience, I think that's called non-binary.

I was worried you were gatekeeping "transness" to surgery or something along those lines.

You won't find much transexualized transgender gatekeeping on this forum, thank you very much.

Maybe people that question a trans writer's most pivotal work as a trans allegory, but we're still working on that one.
