“Because only 4% of the top 100 studio films over the last DECADE have been directed by women, #TIMESUP is initiating a challenge, the 4% challenge, and I intend to take it: I commit to working with a female director in the next 18 months,” Tessa said.

The following day, Terry Crews and Kendrick Sampson teamed up with the founder of the #MeToo movement Tarana Burke to speak during the HBO #MeToo Panel discussion.

FYI: Kendrick is wearing Kenneth Cole boots.
