She also expressed that it is welcoming to see a lot more representation of modern-day women in the cinema today.
Samantha also said that she is ‘pretty conscious’ of the roles she picks. Referring to ‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’, Samantha said, “And this one is definitely a welcome change because we are used to
spy movies
and spy series where the man is doing all of the heavy lifting, and he’s at the centre of it all. So it is nice to be given equal, you know, ‘kind of equal’ time and in terms of action scenes in ‘Citadel: Honey Bunny’ which is a great thing. I hopefully, more layered characters are written for women.”
