[Do you think there’s a double standard then for what female actresses go through than what guys go through?]
KRISTEN: Yeah, for sure! I mean, that’s like the classic—that’s what people complain about—not having roles, like, hefty roles because they’re not written for women because people don’t think that they’re interesting enough or that they could do them or that they don’t have an audience. […] You need to be a certain way or else you need to go away. And guys don’t have that necessarily, I mean, they do, but I feel like they get away with a lot more—they can have personalities; they can be people. I feel like girls need to be cute…and funny.

i love this so much — that’s the beauty of the show; the destruction within the love

Reporter: I have a question to Robert and to Scarlett. Firstly to Robert, throughout Iron Man 1 and 2, Tony Stark started off as a very egotistical character but learns how to fight as a team. And so how did you approach this role, bearing in mind that kind of maturity as a human being when it comes to the Tony Stark character, and did you learn anything throughout the three movies that you made?
And to Scarlett, to get into shape for Black Widow did you have anything special to do in terms of the diet, like did you have to eat any specific food, or that sort of thing?
Scarlett: How come you get the really interesting existential question, and I get the like, “rabbit food” question?
The respect given to you if you’re a man in the entertainment business, and the respect given to you if you’re a woman in the entertainment business: all perfectly summed up in one idiotically thought out line of questioning.You know, I always did like Scarlett Johannson.
Dat side-eye.
Let me just hug you forever Miss Johannson.
