From ‘Billions’ to ‘John Wick 3,’ Asia Kate Dillon Makes Hollywood Theirs

, who portrays non-binary investment wunderkind Taylor Mason on the Showtime series and also identifies as non-binary off-screen. The term “non-binary” encompasses a spectrum of gender identities that embraces fluidity, or does not acknowledge any conventions of gender at all. Typically, non-binary people reject traditional male and female pronouns like “he/him” and “she/her” in favor of pronouns like “they/them/theirs.

What’s most significant about Dillon’s work over four seasons is its lack of tokenism. The other characters in the world of the show use Taylor’s preferred pronouns respectfully and religiously, as do the fictional news media covering Mason’s upstart investment fund from network anchor chairs. The character has also enjoyed love scenes with men and women alike.

The star has also garnered awards attention, which raised questions around the legacy practice of awarding men and women in separate acting categories. A rising movement to remove gender from nominee categories like best actor and best actress has been brewing for years, but the MTV Movie & TV Awards has been the only ceremony to step up and make the change.

Dillon’s push for visibility does not end on-screen. They are expanding their work behind the camera through a production company called Mirror/Fire, founded in 2016, whose mission is to uplift marginalized and underrepresented people through storytelling.
