The Acolyte has already cast “non-binary” actor Amanda Steinberg in its lead role. Thorn came out as trans in 2021 on his YouTube channel “Philosophy Tube,” calling for minors to be able to receive “life-saving puberty blockers” and for a socialist reorganization of society to enable “trans equality.”
