Hotel Artemis star Jodie Foster explained that she loves to act but will continue directing as well at Saturday's premiere of the new action film at the Regency Bruin Theater in Los Angeles.
I said it and Ill keep saying it I want to direct, Foster explained to The Hollywood Reporter. And I will direct more than I acted.
The actress/filmmaker was not shy to share her thoughts about the rise of female directors, as that faction of the film industry has been the last area that needs to see a change. She also made a point to mention that Europe has always been ahead.
Its America thats the problem, and it has been for a very long time, Foster said. We need to bang the head of America to let them know that it needs female directors. Furthering her comments on female helmers in Hollywood, Foster smiled and said, Just look at Wonder Woman.

The problem with dried up old lesbians is that they never go away.
Maybe its female directors who have a problem with America.
Did she just assume the gender of certain directors? Why...she is worse than Hitler.
Excellent point! Maybe some of the “male” directors identity as women.
And A League of Their Own.
Hay Jodie , do you need to have some place to feel more comfortable? Doesn’t Universal Studios have a safe room for cry babies? Maybe You could go find a job as a Director in INDIA ? I’ll bet London needs a good Female to produce more Ismalic films for (* once was great) Britain ?
IMDB gives J Foster 10 credits as director and here are 2 of them
Orange Is the New Black (TV Series) (2 episodes)
- Thirsty Bird (2014)
- Lesbian Request Denied (2013)
Yup. I guess Jodie forgot about all of these movies.
What we really need is less harping about “women this and women that”. I AM WOMAN and when I see this jazz, I do ROAR! Is it absolutely necessary for everyone in this country to have a gripe/complaint about something every single day? It’s a disease with no immunization!
Female chiming in here with agreement....with both you and your wife!
Two things:
1) Hollywood understands only one language. Money.
2) Said “oppressed directors” do not speak that language well.
Frankly I rarely pay much attention to who directed a movie.
Thanks. We’ll count you in the 5% that probably doesn’t give women a bad name.
She is a Hollywood Player.
All she has to do is invest some of her own Money and get a group of like minded Hollywood types, Lesbians, Liberals, SJW’s, Gays, Trannies and any other Democrats to pony up some more Cash and let her Direct their Movie.
Reminds me of people who whine about their Jobs. You don’t like what you’re doing, quit and do something else.
Most people who go to see movies don’t even know who the director is.
I’ll work any day for a man over a woman.... most can’t handle the pressure when the burner goes up.
“We need to bang the head of America to let them know that it needs female directors.”
Because I love being beaten into submission as to how I spend my leisure time and money.
I don't watch movies based on who directs them. I choose my films based on subject matter and genre.
