Can we PLEASE get trans protagonists In science fiction, fantasy and action movies & TV shows. Pretty please I'm begging. Can we get multiple main/major trans characters too PLEASE?

For the love of God trans rep doesn't need to be regulated to; grounded realistic contemporary dramas/comedies. Or it's a sci-fi/fantasy show but they'll be a side character in the cis MCs story and who'll have a max 10 minutes of screen time

#trans #transgender #transmasculine #transfem #nonbinary #transneutral #queer representation #trans representation #queer rep in media #film & tv #like that one show i started watching bc of a nonbinary character who appeared in 8/12 episodes...who had less than 20 minutes of screentim #the show was fun if a bit too white feminism & joss whedon millennial for my tastes #but yeah sucks how even if a trans character appears in 3/4s of the episodes they'll still be a bit player in cis people's stories #it's so much better in books(not much it's still statistically miniscule)#it's crazy i have a list of dozens of big traditional published trans sff books across age categories but for film & tv crickets #and yes I'm sure there are niche transbien vampire web series made with a shoe string budget #...but I'd like things with good acting good costumes make up fx and made with actual money that's easily accessible to watch please #also don't come at me with Dead End paranormal park or the witch from The Owl House #congrats you've got one trans MC in a fantasy show for kids and a side character in a fantasy show for kids #can the adults get some crumbs next please?#and can the trans kids get more shows that aren't cancelled after two seasons 🙃
