MCU and Trans Characters?

Maybe.

The source isn't the Daily Mail, but it isn't a major source either. The source claims that Marvel is currently looking to cast a "trans woman of any ethnicity" in a forthcoming film. It may tie in with some tweets made by black trans actor Angelica Ross.

Given the MCU's record on LGBT I'm not holding my breath, but we can definitely hope. There's no word as to which character in which film, although Sera, a canonically trans character connected tangentially to Thor might be a possibility.

If this is true I give them points, because I am so tired of cis actors being cast to play trans characters.

When trans actors are routinely cast to play cis characters then cis actors can play trans characters...
