Netflix

• Warning: Spoilers ahead for "The OA."
• Ian Alexander stars on Netflix's "The OA" as Buck Vu, and the role was expanded for season two to include "Michelle," a different version of Buck we see in a new dimension. 
• In an interview with INSIDER, Alexander reveals how he drew an antler design that said "Buck Vu" for his character's costume, and helps explain the details of the final mind-bending twist. 

Netflix's "The OA" took its characters to literal new dimensions with "Part Two" of the mind-melting show. One of these people, Buck Vu, is played by 17-year-old Ian Alexander.

This season, Alexander was tasked with portraying Buck Vu (a transgender teen boy) as well as Michelle Vu (a version of Buck in an alternate dimension who Alexander views as a pre-transition). Similar to Buck, Alexander identifies as transmasculine and uses he/him pronouns.
