MCU’s First Trans Actor Zoe Terakes Talks Making History at Marvel

During an exclusive interview with Collider’s own Perri Nemiroff in Park City during Sundance, Ironheart series star Zoe Terakes discussed what it means to be the first trans actor in the MCU.
Last year, Terakes was announced as part of Ironheart playing a key character in the show. Per usual, Marvel Studios is handling the show with maximum secrecy, but during our interview, Terakes was excited to share what being part of the Marvel family means to them.
Check it out in this Talk to Me interview clip!
​​​​​​​Special thanks to our 2023 partners at Sundance including presenting partner Saratoga Spring Water and supporting partners Marbl Toronto, EMFACE, Sommsation, Hendrick’s Gin, Stella Artois, mou, and the all-electric vehicle, Fisker Ocean.

I didn't see other trans people in the media so I didn't know I existed - lol what?

[@ShishuHiwatari]

Not the first trans actor in the MCU. 🙄🙄🙄 Aneesh Sheth is a trans woman of color who was in the 3rd season of Jessica Jones. So please maybe do your research?

[@thegraebster]

Why is the Collider interview "exclusive"? It should be inclusive! I feel offended!

[@meowjul31]

You should specify there’s a million marvel projects at this point.

I hope He does great 😊!!

She’s probably in it as a minor character.

MCU should have ended at Infinity War, in my personal opinion. Loki, Moon Knight, Werewolf By Night and Guardians Christmas Special have been pretty good but otherwise, it’s pretty hit and miss.

Whatever MCU movie that person appears in won't be shown worldwide and Marvel will lose money 💰...
