Janet Mocks makes history in securing multimillion-dollar Netflix deal:
The deal will enable Mock to “create programs that employ and highlight communities that have historically been ignored by Hollywood, including the intersectional space Mock herself occupies as a woman of color and a highly visible trans person,” according to Variety.
“As someone who grew up in front of the TV screen, whether that was watching talk shows or family sitcoms or VHS films, I never thought that I would be embraced,” Mock said. “And more than embraced. Given not just a seat at the table, but a table of my own making.”, a drama highlighting the icons of New York’s underground ball culture, a movement that first gained notice in the 1980s. The show features the largest cast of transgender actors in a series regular role, according to FX.
. She worked for years as an editor at People magazine, coming out as trans in a 2011 essay for Marie Claire. She said she hopes the Netflix deal “will be a huge signal boost, industrywide, to empower people and equip them to tell their own stories.” I'm excited to announce that I am partnering with Netflix to tell stories on a global platform. So proud to join the ranks of digital content moguls as the first trans woman to call her own creative shots at a major content company.
