In reply to the discussion: actress tells minorities to stop stealing white super hero roles [View all]JonLP24
(29,916 posts)I'm not aware if she even has those issues but she is more familiar with Hollywood but she probably notices this huge Comic book movie push & it is getting a little out of hand. Basically she was asked if she was going to do a role and her response went from there, probably a no but made a statement out of creativity. I learned a lot about comic book character history in this thread so she may not have a deep knowledge of the history. However, while I liked the 2 Batman movies, I really have 0% in the rest of the comic movies.
While a simple writer does not have power, I doubt she has much power & don't believe she has much history if any as a screen writer so I don't see if she could do all that you suggest. She is one of the most typecast actors out there. She could certainly speak her opinion, turning down a role (if it was offered) & giving an opinion has an impact but she isn't a major player out there.
On edit -- the headline is very misleading & isn't the same headline the article uses but mentions parts of Hollywood that could come up with their own stories but I'm sure the more she elaborated the more reasonable her opinion is rather than a few things taken out-of-context & asked with TMZ cameras stalking her & asking a question about a role she obviously did or would turn down.
