Riz Ahmed: Muslim Ban, Hollywood Activism, and Diversity

Muslim Ban: Thinks the travel ban is discriminatory, un-American, and goes against America's values
His Political Rap Music: Doesn't rap with the intent of being political, he's speaking about his own personal experiences (i.e. extra TSA checks at airports). Thinks people consider it political because it's a perspective they're not used to.
Celebrities and Politics: Thinks that individuals who have a platform in these instances have a moral responsibility to speak up. Also, America essentially elected a celebrity as President, so why can't celebrities comment on politics?
Diversity in Hollywood: Thinks it's about investing in new voices and stories which will help to break down barriers between different groups of people. Thinks that people are starting to see that these risks can pay off in film and television.

In a recent interview, Scarlett Johansson talks about the controversy surrounding her casting as Major Motoko Kusanagi in 'Ghost In The Shell,' saying that she approached the role with a focus on gender and not race. Scarlett says that she "would never presume to play another race of a person" and that she would never want to feel like she was playing a character that was offensive. She goes on, saying that "having a franchise with a female protagonist driving it is such a rare opportunity" and she can feel the enormous pressure of the weight of such a big property on her shoulders. Scarlett says that even though she's the top-grossing actress of all time, that doesn't necessarily mean that she's the highest paid, and that the gender wage gap is an uphill battle and fight.

Miller devises a dangerous plan to eradicate what's left of the protomolecule on Eros.



- “we dreaded the task of going out into the world and finding this person,” executive producer Hawk Ostly said
- A fan favorite from the books, she is described as : “Bobbie was not the right shape to fit into one of the standard suits, and the Marines made her jump through a series of flaming hoops every time she requisitioned a new custom one. At a bit over two meters tall, she was only slightly above average height for a Martian male, but thanks in part to her Polynesian ancestry, she weighed in at over a hundred kilos at one g. None of it was fat, but her muscles seemed to get bigger every time she even walked through a weight room. As a marine, she trained all the time.”
- Most times we just went for the actor who understood the soul of the character, rather than the physicality that the book might have put forward,” executive producer Mark Fergus added
- Frankie Adams not only had the acting skills, as well as the height they wanted, but also had years of training as a boxer
- Adams would ask herself of any role : “Do I agree with the things she does, yes or no? Would I get a crush on this woman, yes or no? (♥)
- “It requires you to work harder and to go to places that haven’t traditionally been on the radar. But when you do, you’re always getting rewarded for it.” says executive producer Naren Shankar on the casting job for the character

I definitely like that the series went the extra mile of finding the right actress with the same heritage and physicality of the role. I do agree with some fans that on the subject of Chrisjen, that perhaps they could have found a proper Indian actress to portray her. I feel like the third point above reflects their decision in this (sidenote : having followed the authors' twitter accounts, they both were fans of the game Destiny in which Shohreh voices a character and I wonder if this also played a part in them wanting her for the role). Anyway, thoughts on the ep? How are you all enjoying the season so far? =)

Gossip Girl
"I think I'm different. I started Gossip Girl 10 years ago when I was 20, and I'm 30 now. I loved doing it, and now I'm doing something else that I love, and something new that's a little bit more my taste as a 30 year old, something I've grown into. I feel so lucky that I can have such amazing fans and they either grew up with [the show] or they're growing up with it now. I've also heard people say, ‘Oh, we watch that as a throwback,’"


Making History (new show on Fox)
"When I went into [the show], and when I decided that I wanted to work consistently on something [since becoming a mom], I had criteria. I read other [scripts] too, but this was just the one. It was love at first sight,"

"I'm proud to work on a show that uplifts the female lead, and has a not-so-subtle yet approachable commentary on the treatment and mistreatment of women throughout the ages,”
