I am certainly proud to add 'Korra' to the pantheon of TV characters, which is perpetually sorely lacking in multifaceted female characters who aren't sidekicks, subordinates or mere trophies for male characters.

Bryan Konietzko

With Milli Vanilli, we felt more like bimbos, the bimbos of the music industry, and we didn't want to be the bimbos anymore.

Rob Pilatus

I think there are more female characters in videogames now but I also think that's because videogames in general are more diverse now.

Tara Strong

Often, female characters are quite one dimensional, especially in a two hour film; television gives characters room to breathe and develop.

Elizabeth Debicki

The black characters on TV are the sidekicks, or they're insignificant. You could put all the black sidekicks on one show, and it would be the most boring, one-dimensional show ever. Even look at the black women on 'Community' and 'Parks and Recreation' - they are the archetype of the large black women on television. Snide and sassy.

Issa Rae

The Lib-Dems are sidekicks. They were born to be sidekicks and that's what they should concentrate on being.

A. A. Gill

You typically find stereotypical female characters that are people pleasers, where they are wives and girlfriends, typically, who are in the background.

Haley Bennett

But in a TV series, you can really take a novelistic approach and explore characters that you wouldn't ordinarily see, in a level of complexity that you wouldn't ordinarily get to explore just out of the sheer time constraints in a feature.

Lisa Joy

I think the superhero platform gives the female character, you know, a relate-ability for the male audience as well. So, I think that's why people are kinda gravitating towards female super hero characters, and also female characters in general as big parts of the film. So, that's great for us, female actors who want to do roles like that, which is really great.

Margot Robbie

When we create female characters, I think often there is a tendency to kind of make female characters emotionally bulletproof.

Ashly Burch

I get the feeling that characters are written female when they have to be, and all the other characters are male, and it doesn't occur to somebody that the lawyer, the best friend, the landlord, whoever, can be female.

Geena Davis

Female characters in literature are full. They're messy: they've got runny noses and burp and belch. Unfortunately, in film, female characters don't often have that kind of richness.

Frances McDormand

We're showing kids a world that is very scantily populated with women and female characters. They should see female characters taking up half the planet, which we do.

Geena Davis

To me, feminism in literature deals with the female characters being in some way central to the thematic concerns of the book, or that they are agents of change to some degree. In other words, the lens is focused deeply and intensely on the female characters and doesn't waver, which allows for a glimpse into the rich inner lives of the characters.

Laurie Foos

There's a remarkable amount of sexism on TV. When male characters are flawed, they're interesting, deep and complex. But when female characters are flawed, they're just a mess. It's good to put more flawed but interesting female characters out there because it promotes equality.

Ellen Pompeo

I've wanted to produce for a long time. I'd love to get a bunch of my girlfriends together - a female writer, a female director - and create something. Creatively, it's a different dimension. Why wouldn't people want that?
