| | | | | ISSUE 02: Women's History Month | | | | Three of the top female directors who are transforming the industry today. Nia DaCosta Nia DaCosta has quickly established herself as one of the most versatile directors in Hollywood. Not only was she the first Black woman to direct a Marvel movie (2023's The Marvels), but she's also built a reputation in the horror space with the modern remake of Candyman (2021) and 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026), in addition to directing the romantic drama Hedda (2025). DaCosta's filmography so far makes one thing clear: she's here to do it all. Eva Victor A comedian, writer, and filmmaker you need to know, Eva Victor (she/they) burst onto the indie film scene with her debut feature, Sorry, Baby (2025), which she wrote, directed, and starred in. The dark comedy-drama about a woman trying to come to terms with a life-altering event premiered at Sundance, then went on to take home the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award before being scooped up by A24 for distribution. Kathryn Bigelow Proving that action filmmaking isn't just for the boys, Kathryn Bigelow has built a career on edge-of-your-seat storytelling with movies like Near Dark (1987), Point Break (1991), and The Hurt Locker (2008), for which she became the first woman to win the Academy Award for Best Director. Bigelow has gone on to direct other adrenaline-filled, thought-provoking films like Zero Dark Thirty (2012), Detroit (2017), and last year's A House of Dynamite. | | | | | Main Character Energy The spotlight is theirs, and they're not dimming it for anyone. | | | | | | | | | | | | | Houston, we have legends. Before NASA had computers, it had Katharine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson. | | Hidden Figures is not only an important story—it is a joyful, hopeful tribute to intelligence, equality, and legacy. | | | This film not only inspires but also celebrates the incredible achievements of the women behind NASA's success. | | | | | | | | Corrine's Corner For Women's History Month, we asked our Marketing Operations Manager to share one of her favorite women in film. Michelle Yeoh is an icon, and she's finally getting the recognition and appreciation she deserves. The Malaysian actress has been smashing stereotypes and kicking ass on screen for decades. From her martial arts days in movies like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000) to her Oscar-winning performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022), she continues to inspire and show the world why Asian representation matters. | | | | | Love Plex?
