Actress Bryce Dallas Howard, the daughter of actor and filmmaker Ron Howard, spoke to the New York Times regarding the current situation of the entertainment industry.
As might remember, the movie, ‘Jurassic World: Dominion’ resumed filming in the United Kingdom in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Howard, who is reprising her role as ‘Claire Dearing,’ posted on Instagram a few photos from the backstage of the said movie. Alongside the photos, she made mention of the revolution of the industry:
“Going back to work I’m reminded that when people work together, pretty much anything is possible. The intersection of a global pandemic and a revolution has emphasized (in every industry) how flawed current systems are. Even more, it’s shown how as a collective we have an opportunity to transform the infrastructure of the entertainment industry in its entirety and for the better.”
The actress also stated that as film workers, they are rebuilding set dynamics amid pandemic for a safer work environment:
“Though the changes on sets are a product of a COVID world, I and so many others believe many of the protocols will last far beyond the current visible crisis. Protocols around effective communication, collaborative decision-making, and consent and touch are examples of a system that above all prioritizes equity. We are rebuilding set dynamics and creating an environment in which all parties feel safe, heard, and supported. That’s a space we will strive for, pandemic or not. The only way for any of us to remain safe is having access to support and information and the power to speak up. It’s time that we all step into that power.”
‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ star, Howard concluded her message by expressing her gratitude for going back to work:
“While there are unforeseen challenges ahead (because who knows what else 2020 has in store for us), our Jurassic family is an adaptable group. I am so unbelievably fortunate to be able to go back to work with this group of guinea pigs.”
