After receiving a new passport with an altered gender marker, the 'Euphoria' star shared a stark reality check on trans rights under the Trump administration.

Actress Hunter Schafer says the listed gender on her passport has been changed. Schafer, who is transgender, opened up about the incident in a recent TikTok video where she explained that after receiving a new passport, her gender had been changed from female to male.

I was shocked because I just didn’t think it was actually going to happen,' Schafer said of the passport change.

At yesterday evening’s 2025 Independent Spirit Awards, where Schafer was both a nominee (for her film Cuckoo) and a presenter, Natasha Rothwell used her acceptance speech for best ensemble cast in a new scripted series (for How to Die Alone) to champion trans rights.

Hunter Schafer, a prominent trans actress and model, warned TikTok followers against complacency, saying her passport sex had been changed to "male."

I just didn’t think it was actually going to happen,” said the “Euphoria” star — who says she listed her sex as female on her application.

"Euphoria" star Hunter Schafer, who is one of the most prominent transgender woman in Hollywood, revealed Friday that her new passport was issued with a male gender marker against her will.

Trans people are beautiful,” Schafer said in an eight-minute TikTok video. “We are never going to stop existing.”

The "Euphoria" actress, who is transgender, shared her experience in a TikTok video about seeing her passport gender change.
