Jordana Brewster, the actress who plays Mia, Toretto’s sister in the Fast and Furious franchise, has granted an interview to The reality website in which she has talked about how the canons of female exposure have changed both on TV and in cinema. The topic of conversation arose when Brewster recalled a scene from the other independent film that he is going to release, The integrity of Joseph Chambers in which in one scene he must drop his pants and show his ass. The companions had no expectation that the actress would perform this action, however Brewster considered that it was a relevant scene for the construction of his character , so he ended up doing it.
“I’m going to do it because what do I have to lose ?” The actress remembered, while mentioning that she went to buy beautiful thongs for the scene, while her companions were stunned by her behavior. She attributes that moment to what seems like a new era free from the sexualization of magazines like Maxim or FHM . “Ten years ago, I was so worried about what my gut will look like? What does my butt look like? ”Said Jordana Brewster, who also pointed out that at that time you had to be talented, but also have a certain size, not be too fat or thin. “There was a lot of pressure on actresses to look a certain way and that’s exhausting and a waste of energy because instead of reading or focusing on your character, you’re focused on how do I look now?”
The Panamanian says, especially noticing it when she turns on the television : “When I watch television, I say wow! It’s so refreshing that women can wear things that aren’t so explicit. They are not treated as sexual symbols unless that is important to their character. That is amazing and reflects a life a little more real. I think we are going in the right direction ”.
