Actress
Kate
Beckinsale
reveals
that
she
was
told
that
she
didn't
have
much
scope
in
Hollywood
industry
as
an
actress.
The
Love
&
Friendship
actress
started
her
career
in
acting
with
independent
British
films,
and
there,
people
had
told
her
that
she
has
no
"edge."
The
actress
also
said
that
it
might
be
due
to
the
films
she
started
with,
people
had
perceived
her
as
soft,
delicate
and
meek.
"When
I
began
working
outside
of
England,
what
I
kept
running
into
was,
'She's
very
British
and
delicate,
she
doesn't
have
much
edge'," said
Beckinsale.
However,
the
43-year-old
actress,
is
now
thrilled
to
experience
Hollywood,
that
has
changed
over
time,
and
now
women
are
being
brought
into
the
front-line
and
even
as
protagonists
more
often
than
earlier.
She
said,
"The
needle
has
moved.
'Bridesmaids'
was
a
watershed
moment.
But
now
everyone
just
wants
to
make
female
comedies
that
make
tons
of
money,
it's
coming
from
a
cynical
perspective."
While
talking
about
films,
Kate
Beckinsale
also
said
that
it
is
imperative
to
cast
and
feature
female
as
well
as
male
actors
in
equal
parameters.
Based
on
the
story
and
scripts
of
the
film.
"I
believe
in
well-made
films
that
are
well-acted
and
directed.
It's
important
that
everybody
is
represented."
Beckinsale
added.
