00:00good all right so first and foremost we're really excited to have you here

00:05tonight and in this room of incredible and successful women so what does it

00:11mean to you to be honored at the Gen Next Awards I think that it's really

00:15incredible that they're focusing on young women who are trying to enter into

00:20this industry at a time where women are really stepping to the forefront and

00:24banding together and saying this is what we deserve this is what we're worth and

00:29this group of women is no different really excellent people women in the

00:35industry and the entertainment industry are really taking a big role in not just

00:40in front of the camera rolls but behind the camera rolls what do you think has

00:43to why do you think there's been kind of this reckoning of women just wanting to

00:48be in leadership position not wanting to but actually getting these leadership

00:51positions I mean I remember when I was younger all of these guys around me all

00:58of my male friends were like grabbing their dad's camcorder and starting to

01:03put stuff on film and I remember not feeling invited like there's there was

01:08definitely an attitude of this is what we're doing and you can act in and if we

01:14say that you can but otherwise we're making a movie and I think that that's not

01:20just an attitude that I felt when I was a teenager and I was watching my male

01:24friends make movies but that I see around us and it for a long time was like

01:30there's one chair at the table whichever woman occupies that chair they have to

01:35move in order for another woman to come through and now women are just dragging

01:40up more chairs and going I'm gonna be a producer because I'm gonna have a say so

01:45in what happens to this role I'm going to say what happens to my character I'm

01:50really excited by that possibility I want to do anything I can to get my voice heard

01:57and so if that's producing or directing or writing great we need more chairs at

02:02the table absolutely love that I love the kind of analogy of pulling chairs up to

02:08the table and so you know right now you are in godless and you have a new show

02:13coming up on Netflix private life yes so tell me a little bit about your

02:17character in private life because she seems to kind of in personality just

02:21meeting you for these first few minutes to be a lot like you she I'd like to

02:26think that I'm a little less aimless than her but I do think I do think that there

02:31is something in that of having people tell you what you should be doing and

02:36having that make it difficult for you to figure out what you want to be doing I'm

02:43was very lucky to figure out what I wanted to do at a very early age that

02:47doesn't seem to be this character's experience and she's trying to figure

02:52out how to make herself a a woman in the world and say what she wants to say and

02:59I think she has a lot less of a filter than I do but the thing that I loved is I

03:04apologize way too much for everything and there is nothing that comes out of her

03:10mouth that she apologizes for and so playing a woman who's really

03:15unapologetic was was a blast teach you a lesson in your own life like did you do

03:22you take these like lessons kind of from your characters and keep them with you

03:26and learn from that I check myself constantly I'll apologize and then I

03:30I'll say to someone I'm actually not sorry for that I'll just check myself and go

03:36you have no reason to apologize for existing and moving through the world

03:41well and so if you could look back at your younger self and give her some

03:47advice on working through the world and being a woman in this world what would

03:51you say

03:51hmm that you're gonna make mistakes and you're gonna do things wrong and and

03:58things are aren't gonna work out and that's a really good thing because when

04:04things do work out you'll be ready is there a is there anything right now that

04:11you feel strongly about you're passionate about that you're working towards

04:16maybe not just in your industry but in the world yeah yesterday my brother came

04:22out as trans about a year ago and so I've been trying to figure out how I can be

04:28involved as a as a better ally and a better sister and figure out how to how

04:34to hear what he's going through and I saw that yesterday they were talking about

04:39the first ever suicide hotline for trans people which is incredibly important and

04:45made me feel like those those things are moving in the right direction how do you

04:51think that we can get more people on board that may not have you know it's fine

04:56that people have different beliefs that's always gonna happen it's chocolate and

04:59vanilla but how do we get more people on board it to be open-minded to just

05:05accept others and love others for who they are just empathy and I think that

05:12oftentimes and growing up in the south I saw this a lot there was a desire to

05:17just take care of yourself and your family and the people immediately around you and I

05:24think people need to extend what their neighbor is further than they can see

05:29they have to really think about taking care of other people like they would take

05:37care of their family and then finally what is next for you work wise life wise I

05:44mean private life and godless but private life comes out October 5th and I'm

05:49really excited for that and I'll be doing a film with Allison Janney and Hugh

05:55Jackman next month called bad education so I'm looking forward to that amazing

05:59well congratulations thank you for being here tonight
