Currently being interested in live-action androgynous characters, but unable to find any examples, I would like to ask human beings instead of inhuman search engines:

Are there any movies/tv-shows that have female actors depicting an androgynous character or one who is fashionally/psychologically androgynous?

I've already seen Constantine with Tilda Swinton playing archangel Gabriel.

I acknowledge the fact that these kinds of characters may be rare, and I would also like to disclude ANY ANIME or ANIMATED characters as well.

Check out the movie Orlando, it stars Tilda Swinton and Billy Zane. The ageless Orlando is born as a boy into an aristocratic family in Elizabethan England. As a young man, he becomes the English ambassador to Constantinople, during which time war breaks out and Orlando magically metamorphises into a woman. From there, her adventures take her back to Victorian England and forward to the present day. The whole time you' ll be asking is a girl or a boy. You might want to look at the Crying Game with Forrest Whittaker too.

Victor/Victoria with Julie Andrews comes to mind.
Any live action versions of Peter Pan - it's usually a woman playing Peter.
Also, Winona Ryder in Lucas.
Sigourney Weaver in Alien 3.
Linda Hunt in The Year of Living Dangerously (she actually played a man, I believe)
Hillary Swank in Boys Don't Cry

I know of The Passion of the Christ a woman played satan.

Also on Saturday Night Live and the movie It's Pat, Julia Sweeney plays Pat Riley who is androgenous.

That's all I can think of right now.
