Moderated by Empire’s editor-in-chief, Terri White, the panel featured Belle director Amma Asante, Raised by Wolves producer Kate Crowther, and actors Natalie Dormer, Cara Theobold and Hayley Squires discussing their experiences of being women in film and television, the challenges and barriers they often encounter, and the methods for dealing with an industry which sharply skews towards male audiences and employees (fewer than 20% of major films have film leads, and only 6% of Hollywood blockbusters have female directors).
