The death and rebirth of Hollywood is upon us. Opportunities exist in every sector of the industry. There really is no greater time—wherever you live in the world—to be in film and television. BUT it’s time to innovate and hustle. – Richard Janes, Medium. More:
Along with the Western, the American gangster film is one of the least progressive genres of the modern era in terms of female agency and representation, and as a consequence the representation of la cosa nostra (‘this thing of ours’) in cinema remains steadfastly male. – George S. Larke-Walsh and Stephanie Oliver, Senses of Cinema. More:
Amazon’s “Lord of the Rings” television series will not be able to alter history as Tolkien wrote it, but it will have the freedom to populate history with new characters. – Zack Sharf, IndieWire. More:
The LOTR Amazon series, which takes place during the Second Age, has hired J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay as showrunners. The writers room features Gennifer Hutchison (Breaking Bad), Helen Shang (Hannibal), Jason Cahill (Halt and Catch Fire), Glenise Mullins, Justin Doble (Stranger Things), Stephany Folsom (Toy Story 4), and Bryan Cogman (Game of Thrones). – Chelsea Steiner, The Mary Sue.

The future of Doctor Who is female and I am here for it. It’s the optimism and the hope she brings. After watching Whittaker in ‘The Woman Who Fell to Earth’, it’s safe to say the Tardis is in good hands. – Tobi Walsh, Legion of Leia. More:

When we watch yet another movie or TV show with a strong, silent young heroine, let’s stop idolizing her, and instead ask the writers behind her why she doesn’t get to speak her piece. — Rachel Simon, Bustle.

Watching Gender : Media that perpetuates rigid gender roles and stereotypes can affect children’s sense of self, relationships, and career aspirations. Common Sense Media’s latest research explores the effects of gender-biased media on children’s development—so we can promote more positive, accurate gender representations that give kids the freedom they need to be themselves.
