\t\t<\/p>\n Charlize Theron<\/strong><\/a> isn\u2019t holding back her thoughts on this issue. <\/p>\n The 49-year-old actress spoke to The New York Times<\/em><\/a> recently about the double standard that exists within Hollywood when it comes to action movies. <\/p>\n According to Charlize<\/strong>, women are only given one chance to have a hit action movie before they\u2019re written off.<\/p>\n Keep reading to find out more\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cAction films with female leads don\u2019t get greenlit as much as the ones with male leads. I think the thing that always frustrates me is the fact that guys will get a free ride,\u201d Charlize<\/strong> told the publication. <\/p>\n She went on to say that if an action movie starring a woman doesn\u2019t do well, they\u2019re not given the same chance again the way a man would be. <\/p>\n \u201cWhen women do this and the movie maybe doesn\u2019t hit fully, they don\u2019t necessarily get a chance again.
