In a changed world amid the COVID pandemic, this year’s Women in Hollywood honorees embody resilience on screen and off. @iamjhud is channeling trauma into art in a powerful performance as a young #ArethaFranklin in #Respect. #KillingEve star @jodiemcomer is speaking truth to power as Marguerite, a woman who accuses her husband’s best friend of rape, in historical drama #TheLastDuel. And @theritamoreno is pushing back against Hollywood ageism and typecasting at age 89 with her leading role in #WestSideStory and juicy portrayal of a teacher accused of murder in dark comedy #ThePrank. Link in bio for their interviews along with all of our #ELLEWIH honorees, including @halleberry, @gal_gadot, and #TheEternals stars @AngelinaJolie, @GemmaChan, @SalmaHayek, and @LaurenRidloff.
