While women are still woefully underrepresented onscreen, 2015 marked a new high for female characters. Led by Inside Out’s Joy, Mad Max’s Furiosa and Star Wars’ Rey, a record number of female heroes hit the big screen last year. An annual study that tracks women’s representation in film found a 10% jump in the number of movies with female protagonists from 2014 to 2015. The percentage of female characters at the center of the top 100 grossing films leapt from 12% to 22% last year, according to a report by the Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film at San Diego Sate University.
