“It’s so hard to get movies made, and in these big movies that get made — and it’s even starting to happen with the little ones, which is what’s really freaking me out — decisions are being made by committees, and art does not do well when it’s made by committee,” she added. “Films are made by a filmmaker and a team of artists around them. You cannot make art based on numbers and algorithms. My feeling has been for a long time that audiences are extremely smart, and executives have started to believe that they’re not. Audiences will always be able to sniff out bullshit. Even if films start to be made with AI, humans aren’t going to fucking want to see those.”

Well, this is the second bad franchise she has been in.

It's a shame, because it's very easy to be typecast as an actor when you repeatedly star in flops, and while few directly criticise her performance in either movie, I imagine she'd be concerned that she'll be the first name on the list for lazy cash-grabs, and bottom of the list for anything she'd like to do.

It's why I question those that criticise her for criticising the movie. After all, this is her career, and if there were shenanigans that resulted in a poor movie that wasn't what she expected to come out, she should call it out.

It’s just so tough breaking in these days as the child of two famous actors.
