I mean the business is just so rough man, people always think the business is easy, and the business is very rough. This is probably the worst business that you can get in, as far as, business-wise.
Believe me, it's not easy being an actress and a producer, especially with no big daddy to support you.
My very worst day on 'Green Lantern' was nowhere near as difficult as my finest day on 'Buried.'
It's so hard for women in this business. And I want to be doing this when I'm 50.
I'm just saying that being in this business is not easy, and it's definitely not for everybody.
I believe I am standing firm as a black woman in this industry in a time that it is hard as an artist period.
I think auditioning can be very reductive and I just hate how actors work really hard and most of them aren't going to get the job, and I hate putting them through that.
It doesn't matter if they're in front of the camera or behind the camera. I know women who are producers who are surviving on nothing but juice and almonds.
This is really a difficult time to be in films.
