Women in ‘Charlie’s Angeles’ use their brains, wits: Elizabeth Banks

Elizabeth Banks says she made sure to not overly glamourise her upcoming directorial “Charlie’s Angels” reboot. The 42-year-old actor-director, who plays Bosley on the much-anticipated film, said she wanted to make her actors feel “awesome and comfortable” on the sets.

“We don’t really. We play with that trope and then we dismiss it pretty early on in the movie. The women in this film use their brains and their wits. We had a mantra which was we are going to fight smarter, not harder. That was how we approached most of the action sequences in the movie.
