Rose McGowan Slams Natalie Portman’s Pro-Women Oscars Ensemble, Questions the Annihilation Actress About How Many Female Directors She Has Worked With

Natalie Portman's 2020 Oscars ensemble, a cape embroidered with the names of snubbed female directors, is apparently not the favourite of actor Rose McGowan.McGowan in a Facebook post called the cape "the kind of protest that gets rave reviews from the mainstream media for its bravery," cited The Hollywood Reporter."Brave? No, not by a long shot. More like an actress acting the part of someone who cares. As so many of them do," she added. The 46-year-old further challenged Portman to do more for female directors than wear a cape with their names on it. Oscars 2020: Natalie Portman’s Dior Cape Had the Names of All the Snubbed Female Directors

"I find Portman's type of activism deeply offensive to those of us who actually do the work. I'm not writing this out of bitterness, I am writing out of disgust. I just want her and other actresses to walk the walk," she said"What is it with actresses of your ilk? You 'A-listers' could change the world if you'd take a stand instead of being the problem. Yes, you, Natalie. You are the problem. Lip service is the problem. Fake support of other women is the problem," McGowan continued. Thor: Love and Thunder: Christian Bale In Talks With Marvel to Join Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman and Tessa Thompson Film
