This comes to me from three different producers, so I know it’s real: Warner Bros president of production Jeff Robinov has made a new decree that “We are no longer doing movies with women in the lead”. This Neanderthal thinking comes after both Jodie Foster’s The Brave One (even though she’s had big recent hits with Flightplan and Panic Room) and Nicole Kidman’s The Invasion (as if three different directors didn’t have something to do with the awfulness of the gross receipts) under-performed at the box office recently.

  • hehehe.

    I bet this is totally out of context, though. They (all three producers and Robinov) were probably drunk on champagne, doing blow in the back of a limo, and the prez yelled this out the sunroof. Everyone laughed at the time, but no one took it as a serious policy decision.

    Maybe!
