A new study from the Media, Diversity, & Social Change Initiative (MDSCI) at the USC Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism reveals that less than a third of all speaking characters were female across six years and 600 films. The report is the largest, most comprehensive analysis of gender prevalence in recent film to date. One positive finding is that women were most likely to be seen in comedy films in which 36 percent of characters were female in 2007, 2010 and 2013. Women like Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Kristin Wiig and Melissa McCarthy are true trailblazers and just a few of the reasons that women are making strides in comic films. ow.ly/zDpOl
