Nickelodeon is making history by casting Sasha A. Cohen as the first openly trans actor for their live-action show Danger Force.
The casting comes after Danger Force star Michael D. Cohen, who plays Schwoz on the show, revealed he transitioned to male decades earlier and was female at birth.
Cohen launched the Trans Acting Youth Challenge in December to help trans and non-binary actors break into the business, with Variety reporting Sasha A. Cohen (no relation) has been cast in Danger Force.
