Sarah Michelle Gellar has recently reflected on female-led superhero movies, explaining how audiences do not accept women in the leading cast of Marvel movies. In a new interview with The Guardian , Sarah, who played a vampire slayer in Buffy series, said, “Genre is where women can really succeed and hold an audience.” The Cruel Intentions star continued, “Every time a Marvel movie tries to do a female cast, it just gets torn apart. “Unfortunately, audiences weren’t as accepting. There’s still this mentality of ‘the male superhero’, this very backwards way of thinking,” claimed 45-year-old. In previous interview with Independent , Sarah revealed that she was being branded as “difficult” woman during early days of her career. “A lot of times on sets, you’re told not to make waves’, ‘You’re replaceable.’ And in Hollywood, and when you’re specifically a young female and you speak up about things, you’re labelled as ‘difficult’.

Young workers in Western nations are leaving their jobs at increasing levels over a desire to work for companies they believe are committed to fighting climate change . The phenomenon of “climate quitting” occurs as multiple surveys indicate that professionals in younger cohorts prefer their employers to take active stands on social and political issues. Some 46% of workers and students in the United Kingdom want their employers to demonstrate a devotion to the environmental, social, and corporate governance movement, also known as ESG , according to a poll from the accounting firm KPMG.
