Natalie Portman: Actresses too often treated as ‘objects of desire’

The star, who campaigned for Hillary Clinton in the run-up to the US presidential election, said there is still a lack of decent female parts in Hollywood – and suggested that society has a problem with female leaders. Natalie, 35, told Radio Times: “We are so often put in roles as objects of desire, with a male view, as opposed to subjects of desire with complex weaknesses, and moments of strength and focus – and you can be all of those things.”
