’s Elliot Page has unveiled his character after he came out as trans, and fans’ hearts are bursting.
The actor has, for the past two seasons, , which follows a group of adopted siblings with superpowers who attempt to stop the end of the world.
Sharing a snap to social media, Elliot, 35, showed his character sat at a diner counter looking a little different (but still completely badass).
‘Meet Viktor Hargreeves,’ the actor wrote, adding an umbrella emoji for good measure.
In the photo, Viktor rocks a shorter haircut, with a leather jacket and hoodie and we’re already obsessed.
The Umbrella Academy’s account tweeted: ‘WE LOVE YOU VIKTOR’ while Justin H Min, who played Ben, made us all cry by saying: ‘Ben would be proud.’
Emmy Raver-Lampman, who plays Allison, added: ‘I love you ❤️’, while Luther actor Tom Hopper said: ‘Still jealous of your leather jacket this season!?’.
It’s not yet confirmed whether the character will transition in the show or if Viktor is the new timeline version of Elliot’s character.
After all, (spoiler alert!) season two left us of the Hargreeves siblings returning home to find that things are very different.
Not only is their adopted father Sir Reginald Hargreeves (Colm Feore) still alive, but he has formed a different group of superpowered individuals called the Sparrow Academy, which includes their brother Ben who, in their reality, died when he was a teenager.
When season three of the show finished production, the cast celebrated by and safe to say we’ve got a lot more surprises in store.
Elliot came out in December 2020, writing in the announcement: ‘I love that I am trans. And I love that I am queer.
‘And the more I hold myself close and fully embrace who I am, the more I dream, the more my heart grows and the more I thrive.’
The Umbrella Academy season 3 will start streaming on Netflix on June 22.
