Hunter Schafer says she doesnt want her trans identity to be the focal point of her Hollywood career.

I just want to be a girl and finally move on, the Hunger Games star, 25, said in a new GQ cover story.

She then explained shes steered clear of using the word trans in interviews to avoid having her career hyperfocused on her gender identity.

It has not just happened naturally by any means. If I let it happen, it would still be giving Transsexual Actress before every article ever, Schafer said.

As soon as I say it, it gets blastoff, she added about when the word trans is used in her interviews.

Schafer rose to fame after playing a young trans character, Jules Vaughn, in HBOs hit teen drama Euphoria. She revealed shes been offered tons of trans roles since starring in the show, but doesnt want to be pigeonholed because its ultimately demeaning to her career.

It took a while to learn that, and it also took a while to learn that I dont want to be [reduced to] that, and I find it ultimately demeaning to me and what I want to do, Schafer explained.

Especially after high school, I was sick of talking about it. I worked so hard to get to where I am, past these really hard points in my transition, and now I just want to be a girl and finally move on, she added.

When Schafer was in high school, she made headlines for challenging North Carolinas House Bill 2 , which banned students from using public school restrooms that dont coincide with the gender on their birth certificates.

Schafer went on to share that her ability to reject trans roles was a privilege, adding, Its been very intentional. Ive gotten offered tons of trans roles, and I just dont want to do it. I dont want to talk about it.

But even so, she says she feels a little bit of guilt over not leaning into being more of a spokesperson for her community.

I know for a fact that Im one of the most famous trans people in media right now, and I do feel a sense of responsibility, and maybe a little bit of guilt, for not being more of a spokesperson, the Cuckoo star explained.

But ultimately, I really do believe that not making it the centerpiece to what Im doing will allow me to get further, Schafer added. And I think getting further and doing awesome shit, in the interest of the movement, will be way more helpful than talking about it all the time.
