So, if someone wants to call me."“I had such a great time being in that movie, I had such a great time working with [Christopher Nolan], but I was also personally really uncomfortable.

And while Page is keen to keep working, he suggested that his position in Hollywood has changed since his transition.
"I was seen in a certain way before, and it’s different now, so maybe there is something to reaching out to people and trying to create projects that way," he shared. "But it’s a little tricky for me to get cast now, for obvious reasons."
