Nicole Amber Maines to Star in LGBTQ Vampire Story “Bit”

Maines in "Bit": Provocator

Intersectional vampires are lurking just around the corner. Best known for the HBO documentary “The Trans List” and being the subject of the New York Times bestselling book “Becoming Nicole: The Transformation of an American Family,” Nicole Amber Maines will star in “Bit.” Deadline reports that the story centers on a teenage transgender girl who moves to LA and falls in with a gang of intersectional feminist vampires. (Nothing says 2018 quite like intersectional feminist vampires.)

The indie is being produced by Provocator. Maines’ costars include Diana Hopper (“Goliath”) and Zolee Griggs (“Adam Ruins Everything”).

No word on when to expect “Bit.” The production just finished shooting in LA.

Newcomer Maines acted in a 2015 episode of “Royal Pains.”

“For as long as I can remember, I’ve always recognized myself as a girl,” Maines said in a 2016 TEDx Talk. “I’m here to tell you what it’s like to be trans — what it’s like to struggle every day with acceptance from yourself and those around you.”

Check out Maines’ talk below.
