Hollywood actress Charlize Theron has called out a double standard when it comes to action movies.
The Oscar-winning actress, who has been fronting action movies since 2005’s ‘Aeon Flux’, said studios often give female actors just one shot to have an action movie hit, reports ‘Variety’.
She told ‘The New York Times’, “Yeah, it’s harder. That’s known. Action films with female leads don’t get greenlit as much as the ones with male leads. I think the thing that always frustrates me is the fact that guys will get a free ride”.
As per ‘Variety’, she said that when it comes to men, however, they can have a box office flop but still land multiple follow-up projects.
