Female Breakout 'Captain Marvel' Screenwriter Is Disrupting The Superheroine Trope
Geneva Robertson-Dworet, who wrote Marvel's first female-led film, doesn't want to be a rarity in Hollywood. To advance these dynamic roles, her suggestion is simple: Hire more women.
In a male-dominated industry, Geneva Robertson-Dworet is as rare as the female superhero characters she helps craft. The breakout action-genre screenwriter will be adding a historic project to her resume with Captain Marvel, Marvel's first female-led movie, due out next year.
Robertson-Dworet, who penned the Tomb Raider blockbuster reboot, has also been tapped to work on Sherlock Holmes 3, and the new adaptation.
