It would be great to have gender equity in all positions, we just don&#8217;t. We have fewer female directors and fewer Latinos in front of the camera than we did a couple of years ago. So we&#8217;re actually going in the wrong direction, even though the perception is that we&#8217;re doing so great.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, Eva has faith that Hollywood has the power to change and the power to change the world.<\/p>\n<p>She said: \u201cWomen are still not getting the same opportunities as our male counterparts. What we do [in the industry] matters, it can change culture and, when you change culture, you can change policy, perception. You can change a lot of things with storytelling.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nMeanwhile, Eva has five-year-old son Santiago with her husband Jos\u00e9 Bast\u00f3n and she insisted that balancing motherhood with her career has been easy. <\/p>\n<p>\nShe said: &#8220;People always think it&#8217;s so hard for me balancing my career and being a mother but it&#8217;s actually a lot easier. Because I say no to a lot more things than I used to. If something takes away my time from him then it&#8217;s an easy no. He&#8217;s simplified my life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/eva-longoria-calls-change-hollywood-1402168.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>30 June 2024 Eva Longoria says Hollywood needs to change.
