As per the 45 years old, directing is all about leadership, and she did work with a lot of difficult men as an actor, and it's never been a problem. She further added,

Inspired by Julia Roberts, Banks believes in her own agenda, i.e., equal pay. What's more, she is quite supportive of her actor and does not pressure the things they are uncomfortable with.
Starring Kristen Stewart as 'Sabina', Naomi Scott as 'Elena', and Ella Balinska as 'Jane', Elizabeth has replaced the male gaze element from the originals and filled the film with what she called "sneaky feminist ideas."
