Picture This.

While the movie producing business was once largely a boys club, times have certainly changed. From The Hunger Games to Inception to the Oscar-nominated Zero Dark Thirty, some of the greatest movies of our generation are being produced by women who are major Hollywood players. (Complex) Below are a few you probably should take notice of, In fact you BETTER take notice of! 

1.Diablo Cody ( Independent ) Produced Juno(2007) and Jennifer's Body (2009)
2.Drew Barrymore (Flower Films) Produced Charlie's Angels (2000), He's Just Not That Into You (2009), Whip It (2009)
3.Megan Ellison (Annapurna Pictures) Produced Spring Breakers (2012), The Master (2012), Zero Dark Thirty (2012)
4.Karen Rosenfelt (Sunswept Entertainment) Marley & Me (2008),The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 (2012) 
5. Nina Jacobson (Color Force) produced Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2010), The Hunger Games (2012)
6.Gale Anne Hurd Produced Armageddon (1998), Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003), The Incredible Hulk (2008)
7.Emma Thomas Produced The Dark Knight (2008), Inception (2010),The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
8. Kathryn Bigelow Produced The Hurt Locker (2008), Zero Dark Thirty (2012)
9.Kathleen Kennedy Produced Jurassic Park (1993), Lincoln (2012)
10.Julie Dash (Daughters of the Dust)
11.Cheryl Dunye (Watermelon Woman, Stranger Inside- HBO fim)

Such phenomenal movies are indeed produced by women despite the disproportionate number of women to men producers in the industry. We can surely be proud that the women who have managed to climb all barriers and succeed in the industry are making us proud! 

Picture this Ladies!
