Minnie Driver says female film bosses are worse than men in mistreating actresses when it comes to seeing them as sex objects, ageism and unequal pay.
The Good Will Hunting star revealed she was recently fired from a film by the woman in charge because she 'just decided she wanted her friend to be in my part'.
Oscar-nominated Minnie, 54, said: 'It was about a week of me just feeling just incredibly disposable and awful and sad on a lot of levels that I was disposable and that women are still treating women as badly as we say men have been treating us.'
Her comments come after Sydney Sweeney last week defended herself against a female producer, Carol Baum, who said of the White Lotus star: 'She’s not pretty, she can’t act. Why is she so popular?'
Carol held nothing back as she took aim Sydney while speaking to New York Times film critic Janet Maslin in front of a live audience, with MailOnline exclusively revealing that she had accused Sydney of not being able to act while branding her film Anyone But You 'unwatchable'.

Addressing her romcom Anything But You, in which she stars alongside Glen Powell, Baum said: 'I was watching on the plane Sydney Sweeney's movie because I wanted to watch it.
'I wanted to know who she is and why everybody's talking about her. I watched this unwatchable movie – sorry to people who love this
