Raya and the Last Dragon. Black Widow. Cruella. A Quiet Place Part II. That’s just a sampling of the female-led movies hitting theaters in 2021 hoping to kickstart the movie theater industry back into business. The summer and fall are stacked, with everything from musicals, to horror movies, to huge superhero epics hitting screens, and female characters are leading the way.

Likewise, a number of women are behind the camera for big studio tentpoles, from Cate Shortland and Chloé Zhao behind the next two Marvel movies to Nia DaCosta’s Candyman reinvigorating the horror franchise. Equality still isn’t there, but it’s still an empowering time to be a woman in the entertainment industry. To celebrate, we put together a fun, quick quiz all about women in Hollywood. Test your knowledge!
