Kristen Stewart highlights that true progress for women in the industry remains elusive.
Kristen Stewart has sparked a vital conversation about Hollywood’s portrayal of progress for women.
The actress challenged the industry’s tendency to pat itself on the back for featuring a few successful female filmmakers, arguing that true equality is far from achieved.
“It’s easy for them to be like, ‘Look what we’re doing…'” Stewart said as she graced the cover of Porter magazine,, referencing the promotion of select female-led projects. “And you’re like, ‘Ok, cool. You’ve chosen four.'” While expressing admiration for those women, she calls out the tokenism that undermines broader change.
Stewart’s own experience reflects this ongoing struggle.
Her directorial debut, “The Chronology of Water,” has faced persistent obstacles in securing financing. Her unwavering commitment to the project is evident, as she declared a temporary hiatus from acting roles until her film is made.
Speaking to Porter, Stewart offers no updates on the film’s timeline but emphasizes the challenging subject matter – incest, menstruation, and a woman reclaiming her power.
This honesty underscores the gap between Hollywood’s celebratory rhetoric and the realities faced by female filmmakers pushing boundaries.
