“This [entertainment] business is incredibly hard on women. If I had a daughter and she told me she wanted to be an actress, it would make my heart beat a little fast. It’s hard. But there are women who break that mold. And what’s wild is when you see that girl and she’s in her mid-twenties, that’s when a lot of women start feeling like, ‘Okay, this clock is ticking. They’re going to use me up and then spit me out.’ And that’s what this talent does, they use ‘em up and they spit ‘em out. But [I] see some women and I’m like, ‘Oh, she’s going to last. She’s going to be around for awhile.’ There’s that inner strength. We need those women. We need those actresses who can tackle these roles and not just be the pretty [one] but chang[ing] and morphing and tak[ing] these leading roles. I hope [that] there’s more opportunities out there for them.”
