‘No Time to Die’ Star Léa Seydoux: Hollywood ‘Harsh on Women’

French actress Léa Seydoux shined a spotlight on Hollywood sexism this week when she said the European film industry treats women much better.“The industry in America, I find it harsh on women,” Seydoux said. “It’s hard for women to age. I don’t want to be afraid not to be desirable or to lose my contract. In America it’s economic, and when it becomes a matter of making money you lose your freedom. I don’t feel comfortable with the fact that you have to tick all the boxes.

While Seydoux said that Hollywood can be a tough place for a non-American to lead a feature film, she did, however, tell“I have been offered films very, very far from what I’ve done and I’m like, ‘Oh. Interesting.’ I love to feel that I can adapt myself. For me, that’s very exotic,” she said. “I make the films that I would want to watch. It’s the only way I choose.”

Taraji P. Henson made headlines in December of last year when she called out Hollywood’s gender pay gap. “I’m just tired of working so hard, being gracious at what I do getting paid a fraction of the cost,”. “I’m tired of hearing my sisters say the same thing over and over. You get tired. I hear people go, ‘You work a lot.’ Well, I have to. The math ain’t mathing.”

When you start working a lot, you have a team. Big bills come with what we do. We don’t do this alone. It’s a whole team behind us. They have to get paid. When you hear someone go, ‘Such and such made $10 million,’ that didn’t make it to their account,” she continued.“Off the top, Uncle Sam is getting 50%. Now have $5 million. Your team is getting 30% off what you gross, not after what Uncle Sam took. Now do the math,” she said.
