David Saw 0.5 and Amanda are so interesting to me. Like, is this character textually trans? No, they’re two different characters. Except they’re the same character. Cuz Leigh, the writer, specifically wrote the character as a woman. And then played that character himself. But when he played that character, the character wasn’t canon and was David who is a man. And when the canon version of that character was preformed by Shawnee, the character was Amanda who is a woman. Except they didn’t get all the shots they needed the first time, so they reshot it with Leigh playing the character. So in summary, when the character is played by Shawnee it’s Amanda and is canon, and when the character is played by Leigh it’s David and isn’t canon, except for some shots where the character is played by Leigh and is Amanda and is canon. Oh and they both undergo the same ordeal that completely changes who they are as people. Hope this helps :)
