If I see any sort of injustice, I can fight like a dog. I'm not frightened to be outspoken and I can get very angry.

So, I probably would speak out about that, whether it was about myself or someone else.

I realized that many men are happy to play a supporting role to another man, but they are much less happy to play a supporting role to a woman. People are saying we need more females in our industry and we need more female-driven stories, but that takes the men of bankable star quality to come forward and play supporting roles in those films, because ultimately that's what the women have always done. We've always lent our name value to male-centric stories, and now we're going to have to ask the men to swallow their pride, because it seems that it's about pride.
