Matt Bomer is Going to Play a Transgender Sex Worker and It\u2019s Instantly Controversial<\/b><\/p>\n

\"bomer2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Matt Bomer is set to play a transgender sex<\/a> worker in the upcoming film Anything<\/em>, co-starring John Carroll Lynch and directed by Timothy McNeil.<\/p>\n

Variety<\/em> reports<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Anything” is based on McNeil’s play of the same name. Lynch plays a man<\/a> who is suicidal over the death of his wife and moves from Mississippi to Los Angeles, where he can be under the watchful eye of his protective sister, played by [Maura] Tierney. He then begins an intense friendship with Bomer’s character, a transgendered sex<\/a> worker. The unlikely new couple<\/a> must reconcile their vastly different backgrounds as they fill the void in each other’s lives.<\/p>\n

“Anything” is being produced by Hauptman, Louise Runge, and Ofrit Peres. Bomer, Tony Lipp, and Scott Wexler also executive produce.<\/p>\n

Actor Mark Ruffalo has also signed on as an executive producer of the project.<\/p>\n

The casting of Bomer as a transgender woman<\/a> is reviving longstanding grievances between the trans<\/a> community and Hollywood. Bomer joins Eddie Redmayne and Jared Leto in the list of cis men<\/a> who have played recent roles depicting the stories of trans<\/a> women<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Reaction to the news of Bomer’s casting was not welcome among many trans<\/a> actors, advocates and allies who took to social media to voice their displeasure.<\/p>\n

Why the hell is Matt Bomer playing a transgender woman<\/a>?????<\/p>\n

The announcement regarding Bomer’s casting comes shortly after word that a Michelle Rodriguez film called Tomboy, <\/em>in which she plays a transgender role, was being renamed (Re)Assignment<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Wrote one Instagram user:<\/p>\n

“This is what Trans Face looks like! And I’m really over it! Awhile back I decided to do some poking around to see what updates I came across concerning the deplorable new movie formerly known as “Tomboy: A Revenger’s Tale” starring Michelle Rodriguez (@MRodOfficial<\/a>). It has now been renamed “(Re)Assignment”. Apparently “Tomboy” was to insensitive of a title. Written and directed by Walter Hill (from a story by Denis Hamill), the film centers on an expert assassin who is double-crossed and transformed into a woman<\/a> (Rodriguez) by a rogue surgeon (Sigourney Weaver), and then sets out for vengeance. This movie is a remake of “Johnny Handsome” with a Gender bending twist. This is a behind the scenes pic of Michelle Rodriguez with a faux beard (assuming this a shot from a scene before the inflicted “punishment” in the movie) on YouTube along with this “post-op punishment” clip (m.youtube.com\/watch?v=5jtsvDcdwuY<\/a>)! Yes, this is really happening!”<\/p>\n

Transgender actress Jamie Clayton (Sense8) says she was blocked by Bomer on Twitter after trying to engage with him about his new role in Anything<\/em>:<\/p>\n

\n

It’s sad that this happens instead of wanting to have a conversation about how to help. #transisbeautiful<\/a> @MattBomer<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/k4Qpap5dLW<\/a><\/p>\n

— Jamie Clayton (@MsJamieClayton) August 30, 2016<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Clayton had tweeted an article<\/a> to Bomer and Rodriguez the night before about transgender representation in Hollywood, and said “I really hope you both choose to do some actual good for the trans<\/a> community one day.”<\/p>\n

Bomer has spoken out in the past for transgender rights.<\/p>\n

Back in October 2015, he was active in the campaign to defeat anti-LGBT activists who were trying to do away with Houston’s equal rights ordinance (HERO) and were especially focused on demonizing transgender people.<\/p>\n

“The messages being broadcast across Houston attacking LGBT people in an attempt to repeal the Houston Equal Rights Ordinance (HERO) go beyond misleading – they’re horrifying,” Bomer wrote in an email for HRC<\/a>. “These malicious ads, funded with a lot of money from anti-equality opponents, slander innocent people with slogans like ‘no men<\/a> in women<\/a>’s bathrooms’ and imply transgender Houstonians want non-discrimination protections as a means to abuse children.”<\/p>\n

Bomer also recorded a video<\/a> for the cause:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

In an interview with Sirius XM earlier this month, Bomer told Bruce Bozzi that a transgender woman taught him to embrace his own sexuality<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“I was working at the Utah Shakespeare Festival after my sophomore year of college, and we had a hair and makeup artist who was a transgender girl<\/a> and did the entire company’s hair and makeup. Her name is Kennedy,” he said. “She did shows when she was very dolled up, but in her day-to-day life she lived very simply, and she was raised in a Mormon family, which was very conservative…Growing up it was very hard for her, and to hear the trials and tribulations she had to go through as a Mormon person who really felt like she was born in the wrong body, I really felt like, ‘My god, if this person can really look this deeply into themselves, what am I turning a blind eye on?”<\/p>\n

How this plays out remains to be seen, but it’s an issue that’s not likely to go away soon, especially as qualified transgender actors continue to make strides in Hollywood.<\/p>\n
