Gabourey Sidibe Hopes 'For More Diversity In The Years To Come'

Gabourey Sidibe is all smiles while hitting the red carpet at the premiere of her new film The Brothers Grimsby held at the Odeon Leicester Square on Monday (February 22) in London, England.

The 32-year-old actress was joined at the event by her co-stars Annabelle Wallis, Mark Strong and his wife Liza Marshall.

That same day, Gabourey was spotted arriving at the BBC Radio 1 Studios to promote the flick, which hits theaters on March 11th!

“I would hope for more diversity in the years to come. I’m sure there will be, there was enough noise this year with talk of boycotting,” Gabourey told the BBC, referring to the 2016 Oscars controversy. “I think a lot of people are boycotting, I’m not boycotting but I’m also just not going. I’m just looking forward to more diversity in the years to come. Obviously there needs to be more diversity in who gets nominated, who gets to play, and who gets to vote. I think that’s the key, you can’t change one without addressing the other.”

FYI: Annabelle is wearing a Valentino dress.
