'Oppenheimer' Star Emma Dumont Comes Out As 'Trans Masculine Non-Binary' With A New Name

Emma Dumont has taken a bold step in sharing their true identity with the world by announcing that they identify as transmasculine non-binary while also revealing the new name their loved ones call them.

This week, Dumont flooded their Instagram account with snaps of themselves but didn't directly allude to their recent revelation.

Fans of the actor took to social media to react to the surprising news, with many sharing their indifference to Emma Dumont, now Nick Dumont's revelation.

Dumont has made a major revelation concerning their sexuality, revealing they now identify as transmasculine non-binary while also sharing the new name their family and friends refer to them as.

Dumont also made some significant changes on their Instagram account where they modified their name and pronoun on their bio, writing they now go by "they/them" pronouns instead of "she/her."

"They identify as a trans masculine non-binary person. Their work name is still going to be Emma Dumont, but they will go by Nick with friends and family," a rep for the "Oppenheimer" star told TMZ.

The 30-year-old actor also updated their bio with the new name, adding "Nick Dumont" to their profile.

Dumont's new chapter has left netizens sharing their mixed reactions, with the news leaving several stunned.

"What does this mean? Sorry I don't have a teenager's dictionary handy," an X user quizzed, before another replied with a screenshot of a Google search that highlighted trans masculine people are "people whose gender identity is masculine, but differs from the sex they were assigned at birth."

"I saw this movie three times and I have no idea who this actress is," one user penned, while another said Dumont was "Grasping for relevance 5 minutes too late, the trend is coming to an end loser."

"These f-cking trenders are appropriating our condition, using us for virtue points.. leaving us to deal with the aftermath. This would not be acceptable with any other group," a fan shared.

However, some other Internet users expressed their concerns for Dumont as they wondered if they were "having trouble finding roles as a woman."

Other netizens had kind words for the actor after news of their new identity made headlines.

"Congrats on coming out, Nick! Enjoy being you and your newfound freedom," a fan wrote on the actor's Instagram page.

"Glad you've been able to come out and embrace your gender recently," another person commented. "I'm not sure how you feel about Polaris and that part of your past now, but I appreciate the work you did with the character, of which the broader mutant rights and survivor parts were always what mattered to me. Hoping the best for you in the future."

A third person noted: "Insane! She has the right to live as she chooses, but it feels like Hollywood focuses more on labels like 'transmasculine' than showcasing real talent these days."

Although they're best known for their role in "Oppenheimer," where they played Oppenheimer's sister-in-law, Jackie, as well as the superhero TV series "The Gifted," based on the X-Men series, Dumont had been in other projects.

Before coming out as transgender non-binary, Dumont appeared in a flirty thriller alongside Rumer Willis for "What Lies Ahead."

The film sees Dumont play a young girl named Jessica, who takes a road trip with her new boyfriend's mysterious sister, Raven, played by Willis.

When they first meet, Raven is immediately flirty, telling Jessica, "You must be Jessica, hey. Wow, you're so much prettier than Kyle said."

Blushing, Jessica replied, "Oh gosh, thanks." In another scene from the film, the pair share a very flirty dance together in a bar.

Dumont has been very active on Instagram in recent months, sharing beautiful snaps of themselves, although they never mentioned their coming out.

In May, they debuted a bold, short, choppy haircut, which was a sudden shift from their usual long, straight hair. They've also developed a liking for more casual styles, as seen in their recent post, where they're rocking t-shirts and sunglasses.

According to the Daily Mail, Dumont is billed to star in the upcoming horror film "New Me" as Andriana, although there is no release date for the film yet.

The plot sees a young mother trying to connect with her baby and husband emotionally but must pay a hefty price, letting go of the layers of forgotten trauma she had suffered.
