Actress Jenna Ortega, known for her role in 'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,' recently shared her thoughts on the trend of gender-flipping characters in Hollywood. When asked about starring in a female reboot of Tim Burton's 'Edward Scissorhands,' Ortega emphasized the importance of creating original female characters rather than simply gender-swapping existing roles.
Ortega expressed her support for the increasing number of female leads in films but stressed the need for unique and independent characters for women. She highlighted the significance of maintaining the mystery and sensitivity of iconic characters like 'Edward Scissorhands,' suggesting that creating spinoffs could dilute the essence of the original creations.
