called “It’s a Man’s Worldboasted a female lead in 2019, along with 45 percent of studio releases, up from 55 percent and 31 percent in 2018. However, the study also found that most of those characters were white:
“In 2019, 68% of all female characters were white, an increase of three percentage points from the previous year. By contrast, 20% of female characters were black, a decline of one percentage point from 2018. And while Latina representation increased by one percentage point to 5%, Asian female representation decreased by 3 percentage points from 10% to 7%, on par with the results from 2017.
she won’t speak at all. Just 37 percent of supporting roles went to women, up one percentage point from last year, and speaking roles for women went down a percentage point to 34 percent.
