'Supergirl' to Feature TV's First-Ever Transgender Superhero

-

According to news revealed at a San Diego Comic-Con 2018, Transgender actress Nicole Maines will be TV’s first trans superhero, as they will be featured on the CW’s ‘Supergirl.’

Maines is set to play Nia Nal, a character who reportedly will be following the same journey as the show’s namesake Supergirl. Maines spoke on the character while on the panel, saying “She has this ferocious drive to protect people and to fight against discrimination and hatred. She’s the superhero we need right now.”

Maines went on to speak about her personal journey to this role, saying “I’ve just been doing a lot of auditions lately because a lot of different shows have been really eager to tell the stories of transgender people, especially transgender youth. Because it’s such an important issue right now in our society and in the world. And so it seems only fitting that we have a trans superhero for trans kids to look up to. I wish there was a trans superhero when I was little.”

Who's doing James Bond now..Daniel Craig! Did they shoot another one?” He even went so far as to launch a social media campaign, saying, “Everybody should tweet Denzel is James Bond! Send it to the studio!
