from Facebook: Jessica Chastain forms female-led production company

Having just posted about Ijiofor, Chastain is another such lovely, thoughtful, insightful human being brimming with talent and passion. It’s good to be reminded of positive moves and people who do something to make a difference.

Not surprised to hear of her doing this—she’s struck me as an interesting actress ore interested in deeper,more challenging roles anyway. She just recently wrote a good article on the rarity of being on a movie set where virtually the entire crew (including the director and producer) were primarily women—that’s what probably inspired her to start her own production company. I’m also kind of looking forward to seeing her play an action hero in an upcoming film called The Huntsman.
