Johansson said, “I’ve learned a lot from the community since making my first statement about my casting and realize it was insensitive”:

And if it does get made and a more accurately gendered actor or actress is hired, it could be problematic as well because although Gill is referred to as a “trans man,” she never went through with “hormones or surgery”:
