Scarlett Johansson as Dante “Tex” Gil
Ghost in the Shell struck back in 2018 when Johansson and director Rupert Sanders were paired off once again for a biopic called Rub & Tug. Johansson took on the role of Dante “Tex” Gill, a trans man, despite being a cissexual woman, which was met with protest. Many people thought an actual transgender actor should play the part. Johansson initially dismissed the criticism, but she eventually stepped down from the project.
