As a long-time gamer and ardent fan of The Umbrella Academy, I eagerly await the fourth season’s release, especially after Elliot Page‘s heartfelt remarks about his experience filming post-transition. It’s truly inspiring to witness such personal growth both on and off screen, and it makes Viktor’s journey all the more captivating.
The critically acclaimed Netflix series, “The Umbrella Academy,” has been a favorite for many viewers due to its engaging and binge-worthy nature. It’s known for taking its characters on unexpected journeys through time and space. This week, with the final season being one of the streaming service’s highlights (for those who have Netflix subscriptions), the Hargreeves family will get another chance to save the universe while ensuring they don’t mess up all the timelines. While some of the storyline involves saving the universe, there are also more personal conflicts, such as Elliot Page’s character Viktor going head-to-head with Reginald Hargreeves, who has been manipulating the family dynamics.
As a fan and admirer of both Viktor and Page, I find it truly remarkable to witness their transformative journeys, particularly within the context of their roles in “Umbrella Academy.” Having followed their careers for some time now, I must say that their recent interview with People has given me an even deeper appreciation for their commitment to their craft.
For me, the major change has been since I came out as trans, especially during the past season after being on testosterone for a while. The transformation is immense, and I find it incredibly rewarding. I’m excited to explore more and witness its effects on my professional life.
Page publicly identified as a transgender male in December 2020, following the release of the second season of “The Umbrella Academy” on streaming platforms. Amidst the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, this announcement gained significant attention, leading to Page’s public admission. The outpouring of support was immediate, and Netflix swiftly updated the actor’s character descriptions and other references across their various websites and media outlets.
For eager fans looking forward to Viktor’s performance, Elliot Page hints that his character will confront his father figure about the traumas he endured over the years in a particularly intense scene. He describes it as “deliciously tense” and notes that this moment represents the climax of much of the character’s journey up to this point.
Reflecting on the fulfilling journey he’s shared with Viktor, Page commented on the satisfaction he feels from observing and participating in his advancement.
As a devoted fan, I can’t help but marvel at the transformation of this character throughout the series. Initially, he was so closed off, barely managing conversations or forming connections with others. But now, he exudes a newfound confidence – still battling personal demons, particularly his anger issues, but making progress. It’s heartening to witness him embrace himself more fully and develop a stronger sense of self-worth. Truly, it’s been a rewarding journey to watch him grow.
The showrunner Steve Blackman was open and supportive when the actor came out, and he positively incorporated this into the character’s narrative in the comic book adaptation. However, Blackman subsequently faced accusations about his behavior at work, including claims that he used the actor’s transition for storytelling. These allegations have not been proven by the actor.
As for now, it’s unclear how Viktor and his fellow Hargreeves siblings will end up in the upcoming season, as the storyline picks up from the Season 3 finale where their powers were taken away and they were separated. This unfolds within a timeframe where Reginald Hargreeves (and potentially Grace’s true form) appear to hold significant influence.
As a dedicated fan of the Umbrella Academy, I eagerly anticipate the release of Season 4, which is set to premiere on Netflix on August 8, 2024. With its unique blend of superhero action, dark humor, and intricate plot twists, this show has become an integral part of my weekly viewing routine.
