Summary
Ali Larter told The Hollywood Reporter criticism that Taylor Sheridan cannot write female characters is a “false narrative,” defending his work on “Landman” and beyond.
Larter said the backlash reflects discomfort with older female characters embracing their sexuality on screen, adding that viewers are often “shocked” by it in “Landman.”
The defense comes as Sheridan remains one of TV’s most prolific creators, with credits including “Yellowstone,” “Landman,” “Lioness” and “Mayor of Kingstown.”
Sheridan’s clout has also grown commercially: his new NBCUniversal agreement is reportedly worth more than $1 billion, underscoring his standing in Hollywood.
