Nicole Kidman took a shot at famed director Martin Scorsese, who many have accused of not having enough women characters in his movies. Kidman, who sat down with Vanity Fair, listed off an array of directors she’d want to work with, including Scorsese, who has directed films like The Irishman, Goodfellas and Taxi Driver. “I’ve always said I want to work with Scorsese, if he does a film with women,” she said. In 2019, a reporter asked Scorsese about the perceived bias against women in his films, to which he replied: “If the story doesn’t call for it... it’s a waste of everybody’s time.” However, he did say that “If the story calls for a female character lead, why not?” He has worked with female celebrities on screen, like Sharon Stone, Jodie Foster and Ellen Burstyn, who have all either been nominated or won awards for their work with the director. Other directors Kidman named included Spike Jones, Michael Haneke and Kathryn Bigelow.
