actress takes on the role of Major Motoko Kusanagi in the live-action adaptation of the hugely popular Japanese anime series, a British-born Sanders said he feels "so lucky" to have gotten the chance to work with the in-demand Hollywood star.
Speaking to the latest issue of NME magazine about working withSanders also praised Scarlett for being an example of how to beat the Hollywood gender wage gap as she is at the top of her game starring in a masculine movie and bringing a female touch to it while earning an equal salary to her male counterparts.
He explained: "That's definitely part of it. Everyone talks about the glass ceiling for wages for women. But when I think of Scarlett, she's standing on the roof of that building [as the Major] and she's also standing on the roof of that glass ceiling as a woman saying, 'I'm up here. I'm leading a franchise. I'm doing everything a man can do. I am getting paid the same as a man and I'm going to kick ass the same as a man!'
