transmediaclubNote: the trailer has a scene that is meant to be an analog of the Pulse Club shooting. The aftermath of a Pulse-style shooting seems to be the set up for the show.
I've seen references to the show having trans characters now, but don't have definite word on who and how major a role they have. They did cast Jesse James Keitel as one of the leads, and she is non-binary but uses she/her pronouns.
Also, per <a href="https://www.them.us/story/queer-as-folk-reboot-first-look-imagesan article in They magazine</a>: <i>Executive producer and writer Jaclyn Moore spoke directly to the series’ depiction of trans characters, who were all but absent in the original. “As a trans woman, I’m excited to take steps to move past telling stories that seem to just be arguing for our basic humanity,” Moore said. </i>
