In spite of some impressive strides on television, transgender representation was strikingly absent from the big screen, according to a new survey. GLAAD on Thursday unveiled its 2021 Studio Responsibility Index, which examined 44 movies released by eight major studios last year. The total number of films unveiled by major studios including Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures and Warner Bros. in 2020 was drastically reduced from 2019 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which kept theaters shuttered in major cities for much of the year. Of the surveyed films, 10 (or 22.7%) contained LGBTQ characters, an increase of 4.1% from 2019. The report singled out a handful of films ― including “Like a Boss,” “The Broken Hearts Gallery” and “Birds of Prey” ― for their inclusive casting and portrayals. However, there were zero transgender or nonbinary characters presented in that movie tally for the fourth year in a row.
