Gap in representation and popularity of female roles

As Danielle Vasinova and many other actresses know well, there is a certain gap in Hollywood in terms of who gets more roles — and more money. As shown in the 2021 study «It's a Man’s (Celluloid) World», - a whopping 85% of Hollywood films feature male characters. And as of 2024, the Forbes list of the top 10 highest-paid actors included nine men and only one woman.

Yet, despite seeming to be fewer in number, women are very successful in box office results. In fact, a report from the Creative Artists Agency, Shift7 for the years 2014−2017 showed that films with female leads show huge results in box office earnings.

And there is an influence of these roles. As Danielle Vasinova knows well, films and TV shows with strong female representation inspire young audiences in more than one aspect. They show young women that they are capable of anything — that they do not necessarily have to stand in the shadow of men and that they can choose any career path.
