Gillian Anderson Wants Women in the ‘X-Files’ Writing Room
Gillian Anderson — a goddess among humans — is calling out The X-Files writing team for only hiring men.
According to TVLine, all the writers for the upcoming 11th season are men, and Gillian pointed out recently in a tweet that only two of all the 207 episodes of the series were directed by women, and one of them was her!
“And 2 out of 207 eps directed by women. I too look forward to the day when the numbers are different. #TheFutureisFemale.”
