The club of directors at the helm of Hollywood’s biggest movies remains primarily a Mojo Dojo Casa House, the masculine abode of Ken (Ryan Gosling) in her film. Women, people of color, and especially women of color remain woefully underrepresented in the director’s chair on major theatrical releases. Year after year, the initiative has found minimal changes in the levels of women and people of color directing major movies. On average across all 17 years of the group’s data, only 6% of directors on major films were women. Given the drop-offs at each level, it’s no wonder that the percentages of women and people of color directing at Hollywood’s top echelons are so low.
