Typecast Too Often As A Woman In Charge?

I find it mildly annoying, especially given that her role in Zero Dark Thirty was completely fictional. Anybody else think she needs to take different roles?

She has mentioned that she is very careful to select characters to perform in order to send a positive message to women and change the idea of women that cinema has supported for decades. She has been very open to discuss the wage gap and stereotypes. I think that's fantastic!!
