Gillian Anderson, Variety Icon Awardee, on Playing Radical Women and What She’s ‘Rebelled Against’ in Hollywood
Manori Ravindran International EditorFew people can say their comfort zone is in playing strong women, but for Gillian Anderson, it ’s become something of a personal brand.The American-British actor, who was once best-known for her skeptical FBI agent Dana Scully in Fox’s long-running sci-fi hit “The X-Files,” has gone on to play detective Stella Gibson in “The Fall,” notorious British prime minister Margaret Thatcher in “The Crown” and sex therapist Jean Milburn in “Sex Education.” (And you wouldn’t want to cross any of them.)Anderson — who will receive the Variety Icon Award in a ceremony at CannesSeries on April 1 — will next be seen portraying the rarely dramatized Eleanor Roosevelt, opposite Viola Davis’ Michelle Obama and Michelle Pfeiffer’s Betty Ford, in Showtime’s drama “The First Lady.” But portraying no-nonsense women didn’t begin as a conscious choice for Anderson. In 1993, she recognized a “stark difference” between the Dana Scully role and “pretty much everything else on television at the time,” though, at age 24, she wouldn’t have labelled Scully as the feminist icon she’d come to represent.“I don’t think it was as clear-cut in my mind as being, ‘Oh, this is a feminist character,’” she says.

Hollywood’s bitterest on-set feuds, from Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy to Dwayne Johnson and Vin Diesel and more
‘aggressive’ confrontation, according to a book by Kyle Buchanan, who worked on the film.It is thought to have been sparked by Tom turning up to set late one day, when Charlize, who was a new mum at the time was already in costume and ready to film a scene.According to his book Blood, Sweat, and Chrome: The Wild and True Story of Mad Max: Fury Road, which has been serialised by Vanity Fair, Charlize began ‘swearing her head off’ when Tom turned up two hours late and demanded he be fined for every minute production was held up. Charlize then insisted on having a female producer with her on set to help her feel safe, with Tom acknowledging: ‘In hindsight, I was in over my head in many ways. The pressure on both of us was overwhelming at times.‘What she needed was a better, perhaps more experienced partner in me, I’d like to think that now that I’m older and uglier, I could rise to that occasion.’The pair have both spoken about the feud in the past and said it was down to the intense filming schedule and their lack of trust in one another.Formerly the best of friends, these Fast and Furious co-stars now refuse to work together in the franchise, with Dwayne Johnson not having appeared in a major Fast movie since 2017’s The Fate of the Furious.Dwayne had spoken about the falling out in 2016, referring to Vin Diesel as he wrote on Instagram: ‘There’s no other franchise that gets my blood boiling more than this one.
