1: “She’s not ready.”:
Kathleen Kennedy is a badass producer who became the head of Lucasfilm in 2012, but recently, she said something sort of dispiriting when asked whether a female director would have the chance to helm one of the many Star Wars movies on the way. “There’s nothing we’d like more than to find a female director for Star Wars,” Kennedy insisted, though she added, “We need to not go to a filmmaker who’s done one movie and expect them to come in and do something the size of Star Wars without having an opportunity to find other movies they can do along the way.”
The irony here is that male directors frequently take the reins of a giant Hollywood blockbuster after making just one small-budget debut, and Kennedy recently hired two such men for Star Wars. Gareth Edwards got the chance to direct Godzilla after making the microbudget indie Monsters, and now Kennedy’s hired him for Star Wars: Rogue One. Similarly, Colin Trevorrow, who was recently tapped for Star Wars: Episode IX, had only made the $500,000 indie Safety Not Guaranteed before Kennedy’s own husband, Frank Marshall, picked Trevorrow to make the $150 million Jurassic World. Why is there an assumption that women have to keep proving themselves over and over when a man can make one movie and hit the jackpot?
