He will transition to Viktor Hargreeves, and use he/him/his pronouns.

Elliot himself confirmed the news, as well as Netflix, on Tuesday (March 29).

“Meet Viktor Hargreeves,” Elliot announced in a tweet.

Netflix shared the tweet, adding: “Welcome to the family, Viktor — we’re so happy you’re here.”

Earlier in the month, Netflix revealed a teaser for The Umbrella Academy Season 3.

In Season 3, after putting a stop to 1963’s doomsday, the Umbrella Academy return home to the present, convinced they prevented the initial apocalypse and fixed this godforsaken timeline once and for all. But after a brief moment of celebration, they realize things aren’t exactly (okay, not at all) how they left them. Enter the Sparrow Academy. Smart, stylish, and about as warm as a sea of icebergs, the Sparrows immediately clash with the Umbrellas in a violent face-off that turns out to be the least of everyone’s concerns. Navigating challenges, losses, and surprises of their own – and dealing with an unidentified destructive entity wreaking havoc in the Universe (something they may have caused) — now all they need to do is convince Dad’s new and possibly better family to help them put right what their arrival made wrong. Will they find a way back to their pre-apocalyptic lives? Or is this new world about to reveal more than just a hiccup in the timeline?
