And even though I&#8217;m a woman, I&#8217;m a white woman. So, me being in more movies doesn&#8217;t answer that question. We just need more opportunities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm\" data-reactid=\"21\">After her Oscar win for her performance in &#8220;Room&#8221; and the continuing success that followed, the 27-year-old said she&#8217;s ready to help other people get a leg up in the industry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm\" data-reactid=\"22\">&#8220;Creating more opportunities for different types of people &#8212; that feels really exciting to me and gives my life meaning. I have more of a say in not just the things that I&#8217;m acting in, but [in] these other projects that I want to develop. These are the people that I would love to see on screen. These are the opportunities that I&#8217;d love to give to others,&#8221; Larson said. &#8220;I remember specifically all of the people who took a chance on me and helped me get to where I am, and I&#8217;m super excited to be able to do that for other people.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px;
