whilst there's no shortage of Trans actors (105 actresses, 14 actors), I personally have only heard of one of them - Holly Woodlawn (as in "Holly Came from Miami FLA" in Lou Reed's Walk on the Wild Side) - and willing to bet few would be considered bankable box office names.

Yes, really. That list doesn't undermine the point when it's dwarfed by the equivalent list of superheroes who aren't black.
Still, my main point is at 13:28. There's nothing wrong with increasing the diversity of the Marvel cast, especially after a decade of success, and it's therefore a surprise to see people kick up a fuss when that's what happens.
