Caitlyn Jenner is joining the cast of Transparent

gaywrites:

At the GLAAD Media Awards this weekend, Transparent creator Jill Soloway announced that Caitlyn Jenner would be joining the show for its third season.

The show’s creator and executive producer Jill Soloway called the news “a dream come true” in an interview Saturday at the GLAAD Media Awards.

Soloway would not reveal any details about Jenner’s character, but said they will begin filming her scenes next week. Jenner will appear in the series’ upcoming third season. […]

“We are all part of the same community. A lot of the trans women who work on our show are also in her show, ‘I am Cait,’” Soloway said. “Lots of crossover. Lots of friends.”

I…don’t know how I feel about this. How do you feel about this?

This will only make sense if Jenner is as transphobic on the show as she is in real life.

    Why are we acting like we still like her!?!
  2. thebunnierabbit answered: 1. She’s not an actress so there’s that and 2. There has to be other talented and far more positive trans role models that could have been chosen. I’m not pleased. Caitlyn needs to just stop.

    I’ve been uncomfortable with this show from the beginning. This seals the deal for me.
  11. lesbesatan answered: is she even an actor? like beyond playing herself.
  12. weneedboldstrokes answered: I don’t care about her at all. She’s terrible. I mostly wish she’d go away, and let a real trans advocate step up.
  13. soundoftheantipsychiatree1451 answered: Nice that a trans woman will play a trans woman. Not nice they couldn’t find someone less terrible, by which I mean conservative and rich as fuck and white.

  16. inthegardensofourminds answered: It can’t be that bad. She’s a trans woman and she’ll be playing a trans woman. She will say things that someone wrote carefully, from a script.
