Aren’t you keen to do a Liam Neeson and get your own Taken-style franchise ? Surely it must affect some of the roles you get offered. Absolutely there’s sexism, but I think we play into it when we become victims. I try not to focus on what I don’t have, but on what I want and how am I going to get it. I think it’s there and it’s also what you pay attention to.
Two artistic women are having artistic conflict in the creation process and it’s written up as bitching, moaning and whinging – whereas, if it’s two guys, it’s written up as a battle of creation between gods and it’s completely acceptable.ĭo you still encounter much sexism in Hollywood?
It’s not even harsher: it’s more diminutive. Do you find that Hollywood often labels women who are forceful more harshly than it does men?
