Fans are applauding Pedro Pascal for standing with the trans community during the Thunderbolts premiere last night.
The actor from The Last of Us, set to appear as Reed Richards in Fantastic Four: First Steps this summer, graced the London premiere of Marvel’s Thunderbolts movie while donning a ‘Protect the Dolls’ T-shirt.
*Note: In this case, “Thunderbolts” is actually the title of an upcoming Marvel film, not the name of a specific movie premiere.
The T-shirt, creatively conceptualized by Conner Ives, conveys solidarity towards transgender women, often endearingly called ‘dolls’ within the LGBTQIA+ community.
As a gaming enthusiast, every time I rock my T-shirt, I’m contributing to a cause close to my heart – Trans Lifeline. This amazing organization provides crucial emotional and financial aid to trans individuals in distress, and by purchasing this shirt, I’m joining hands with them to make a difference.
A video of Pascal on a rug was posted to Marvel Studios’ Instagram, drawing admiration from fans who appreciated the strong message – delivered in London a week following the UK Supreme Court decision that a person’s sex is biologically determined, enabling single-sex spaces to exclude trans women if deemed necessary and proportionate.

One fan commented, “Seeing Pedro wear that shirt following the unfortunate passing of the law in the UK confirms for me that I picked the right celebrity to admire.
Pedro Pascal not just embodies the coolness of this T-shirt, but he’s also sporting it in London mere days following the UK Supreme Court’s regrettably misguided gender decision. To many, he’s a champion for standing up against such decisions.

As a passionate gamer, I can’t help but exclaim that this shirt is simply extraordinary! Particularly now, following the disheartening law passed in the UK. And let me tell you, we should do everything in our power to safeguard its wearer!
In 2021, Pascal’s younger sibling, Lux, revealed she is transgender. Since then, Pascal has openly expressed his approval and solidarity with Lux and the broader transgender community.

In an interview with Spanish magazine Ya, Lux shared insights about her transformation, stating: “My transition has felt incredibly organic to everyone in my family. In many ways, it was something they anticipated would occur.
Apart from sharing the story of her transformation, she mentioned that her brother had a significant impact. In her words, “He’s not just an artist, but he’s been a mentor for me throughout this journey. He was one of the initial people to provide me with the tools that have helped mold my individuality.

You can grab a copy from your local newsagents or purchase it online for £7.99. Don’t miss this chance to delve into the world of British comedy legends!
