From Margot Robbie to Pearlena Igbokwe and Ali Wong: Power of Women in Hollywood 2023
By Diane Garrett, Addie Morfoot, Carole Horst, Emily Longeretta, Todd Longwell, Janee Bolden, Matt Donnelly, Sharareh Drury, Selome Hailu, Angelique Jackson, Brent Lang, Brooke Mazurek, Joe Otterson, Michael Schneider, Jaden Thompson, Aramide Tinubu, Adam B. Vary
Every year, Variety celebrates the accomplishments of women in Hollywood — and there were plenty of those again this year, even during a rare double strike that upended the entertainment industry for months. Several of the women on this list were actively involved in negotiations or advised clients about how to navigate guild rules related to the labor stoppages; others had to shut down productions when SAG-AFTRA members joined writers on the picket lines in July. Our hope, as we began working on this Power of Women issue several months ago, was that both strikes would be resolved long before this issue went to press. Instead, the SAG-AFTRA strike lingered, and many performers declined to speak about struck work as we prepared this report. We honor them, and all the West Coast-based women on this list, for the impact they have made in Hollywood and beyond the past year.

Actor, “The Little Mermaid,” “The Color Purple”
Disney’s live-action adaptation of “The Little Mermaid” introduced Bailey, already known for her singing with sister Chloe and acting on “Grown-ish,” to an even bigger worldwide audience. The second Black actor to become a Disney princess, she’s now an icon for young Black girls everywhere. “I want the little girl in me and the little girls just like me who are watching to know that they’re special, and that they should be a princess in every single way,” Bailey told Variety for a Young Hollywood cover story last year. Next up: starring in the upcoming Warner Bros. musical adaptation of Alice Walker’s “The Color Purple.”
