Jennifer Lawrence has witnessed “hissy fits” on movie sets — and they’ve all come from men.
While speaking to Danielle Deadwyler, Michelle Yeoh, Michelle Williams, Emma Corrin and Claire Foy in a Hollywood Reporter roundtable panel, the “Hunger Games” actress compared working with female directors to working with male ones.
“I’ve worked with Bryan Singer,” she said of the disgraced “X-Men” director. “I’ve seen emotional men. I’ve seen the biggest hissy fits thrown on set.”Previous
Lawrence, 32, further described it as “incredible” to not be surrounded by toxic masculinity while on set, shutting down the notion that women can’t be in charge because they’re “so emotional.”
As she compared the two experiences, the Oscar winner said that everything flowed better on set when she worked with female directors.Previous
“The schedule made sense,” she explained. “There were no huge fights. If an actor had a personal thing and wanted to leave early, instead of going, ‘Oh! Well, we’d all love to leave early!’ we’d put our heads together and go, ‘OK. How can we figure this out?’”
“[Lila Neugebauer’s] my third female director and they are the calmest, best decision-makers I’ve ever worked with. I absolutely love working with female directors.”
