Actress Felicity Huffman is most well known as Lynette, the reluctant stay-at-home mom in crisis on the runaway hit TV series Desperate Housewives.

One of her wildest dreams—singing with legend Tina Turner—came true last year. What could be next? How about earning an Oscar® nomination for her very first starring role in a feature-length movie!

In Transamerica, Felicity plays Bree, a man desperate to become a woman. One week before her sex change operation, Bree discovers that years earlier she fathered a son. Her son is a troubled teen who has been arrested in New York. Bree bails him out and they take a cross-country road trip to Los Angeles. Their wild ride turns into a journey of self-discovery revealing dark secrets and hidden pain.
