Jessica Chastain Clarifies 'Glamour' Quotes About Female Roles

Jessica Chastain has taken to social media to clarify some words featured in her Glamour magazine cover article.

The Oscar-nominated actress’s quotes were summed up in a headline by Page Six that reads, “Jessica Chastain: Give anyone but Meryl Streep a chance.”

“Page Six gets it terribly wrong. The headline is upsetting and against my thinking,” Jessica wrote on her WhoSay account. “I would never want to take roles away from a great actress. My point has always been: Why can only one great actress of a certain age get roles in film? We need MORE roles in film for the many OTHER great actresses. It speaks to the lack of diversity in our industry.”
