Paranoia

Heard plays Emma Jennings, Director of Marketing at a tech company, in this thriller directed by Robert Luketic. After Adam Cassidy is fired and then blackmailed by his boss into spying on Emma’s company, he uses her to gain entry. Co-starring Liam Hemsworth, Gary Oldman, and Harrison Ford.

Part of why I like this character, Emma, is that she’s her own woman.  She’s independent.  She has a life outside of the relationship that she ends up being a part of.  I tend to like that in characters — a strength, an independence, a quality that sets them apart from their male counterparts, which is not the easiest thing to do in this business.
