Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon celebrated 30 years of “Thelma & Louise” by reuniting at Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre over the weekend for a discussion moderated by the film’s screenwriter, Callie Khouri (via The Hollywood Reporter). The Ridley Scott-directed film was a critical and commercial hit in 1991, grossing just over $45 million worldwide and earning six Oscar nominations. Khouri won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, while Davis and Sarandon were nominated for Best Actress. Davis said the film’s success led many in the industry to believe a wave of female-led movies would follow, but she’s still waiting for that to happen.
“There are going to be so many movies starring women, about women, female road pictures, whatever,” Davis said. “I’m thinking, hot dog, let’s sit back and wait for all this magic change to happen. We’re still waiting. It really did not happen.
