Every time there's a really good story, there's women in it. We may not get as many roles, but the roles we get are really good, I think, for the most part.

There seems to be great roles for women, and it's not necessarily - you don't have to be young women. Suddenly, we're realizing that, generally, women are interesting, and they can also be weird and crazy and mean.

I think there is an enormous appetite for great roles for women.

It's not fair that there aren't very many juicy or varied roles for women.

I think there is an enormous appetite for great roles for women. You can see that clearly with things like 'The Hunger Games.'

You know, right now, they say - I don't know who says this, but somebody told me - there's three male roles to every female role. And I guess I'd work on evening that up. Making great roles for women. It's just such a huge challenge.

What I really want to do is create great roles for women. And I'm not talking Nicholas Sparks romance. I think women's roles have gotten ghettoized in these sort of places... I'm thinking women in action, comic books, or like the Tony Soprano of women. We need some complex roles.

All the roles are for boys. The girls' roles are either small or all the same. There's just nothing interesting.

Men are boys for such a long time and really don't start getting the great roles until they're in their mid-thirties. But then they've got a long time to do them, whereas for women, it's all about playing younger and younger and younger.

I feel there is no shortage of real interesting women's roles. But I found them and did all of them just now.
