<p>Laverne Cox is dominating the entertainment industry honey! From her recent red carpet appearances, to her work on that whimsical musical,&#8217;The Rocky Horror Picture Show&#8217;, to getting fans amped for the new<br />
season of Orange Is The New Black! Cox is out here working, boo!</p>
<p>While Cox is chasing a check, and also making it a constant effort to preach about the ambiguity behind being transgender, Cox can now add another source of income to her checkbook.</p>
<p>After not being picked up the first time. According to Complex, a new CBS legal drama called Doubt has just gotten the green light! But the best part about all of this is that Cox will be playing a role that is actually about a transgender character, which makes her the first trans actress to play a trans main character in a broadcast series!</p>
<p>Shoutout to Cox, honey! In the new show, she will play an Ivy League educated woman named Cameron Wirth. Wirth&#8217;s character is being described as competitive and fierce and about helping her clients<br />
fight for injustice, according to Variety!</p>
<p>Cox will star alongside Katherine Heigl and Steven Pasquale.</p>
