Kristen Stewart, 35, has once again come into the spotlight after the Hollywood actress openly revealed the bitter realities often faced by female actors in the film industry.
In a recent interview, Stewart admitted that she now enjoys her role as a director more, as she believes female actors are often treated unfairly on set.
According to Kristen, her years of experience in front of the camera opened her eyes to an imbalanced working culture, where the voices of female actors are frequently dismissed and controlled by others.
The situation made her feel a loss of creative freedom, which in turn led to emotional exhaustion.
In contrast, when sitting in the director’s chair, Kristen feels she has full control over the artistic vision and storytelling process.
“The notion that someone needs experience or technical skills to protect the industry is actually just a male perspective, as if making films is too difficult.
In reality, anyone can make a film without experience or technical skills,” she was quoted as saying by Entertainment Weekly.
She is free to make decisions without having to rely on external perceptions or industry pressure that often places female actors into certain boxes.
This bold confession sparked heated discussions on social media, with many netizens praising Stewart’s courage for speaking out on sensitive issues rarely discussed openly. Some also viewed her statement as a subtle jab at Hollywood’s old system. -BOOM!
