Gemma Chan is opening up about her unique position in the industry.
The actress spoke with Harper’s Bazaar UK for their September cover story about her film career and how she hopes to advocate for her communities.

Chan has been passionate about calling for more diversity in the film industry as well as shining a light on issues faced by the Asian communities.
“It’s really difficult in my industry to speak up, with the power structures that are there. I know you can be penalised in a way that means your livelihood has gone,” she explained. “Even if you try to do the right thing, speaking up against bad behaviour, all it takes is someone to interpret what you say the wrong way, or decide that you’re trouble… It’s a hierarchical, word-of-mouth kind of industry where, traditionally, bad behaviours have been indulged.

That’s what guided me.”Despite his termination from the popular news organization, Cuomo said he does not feel like he is a victim of cancel culture, saying “I don’t feel sorry for myself; I’m certainly not a victim.”The interview comes a week after Cuomo launched a podcast titled “The Chris Cuomo Project” after teasing a comeback.
