Emilia Clarke hates the phrase 'strong women'
- 6 years ago
Emilia Clarke is "frustrated" with female characters being labelled as "strong".
The 31-year-old actress - who plays Kira in the new 'Solo: A Star Wars Story' - has rubbished the use of the term "strong women" in the movie industry, calling it sexist.
The 'Game of Thrones' star went on to point out that male leads didn't get branded with the same adjective unless they looked physically fit.
Emilia's comments come after she claimed she was "shocked" to hear about pay inequality issues in the industry, as she has never experienced gender inequality when it comes to how much she earns on 'Game of Thrones'.
