Kate Lister the Melbourne-based actress is creating a TV series (Retreat) that is written, directed, starring and produced by female filmmakers. Whilst Kate Lister has recently starred in three feature films, Foxtrap, Unhinged and Deadly Callback, Kate believes there still a need to focus on female roles in every department of a film and in every role in the film industry.
Kate Lister is also busy preparing for UK Production by Crucible Films ‘Drive me to the end‘, Kate’s Character ‘Sunny’ has Autism and is trying her very best to ‘live a normal life’.
“Acting will always be my craft. I will hopefully continue to take on bigger roles every year. In auditioning though I’ve noticed the real lack of female roles. Not just roles where there’s a focus on female stories for actresses but roles for writers, directors, producers and crew. I want to help create change in the film and television industry for myself and for other females who are already in the industry or who might be inspired to be if they felt there was a strong role to play.” says Kate Lister
Not only is Kate Lister acting and producing, she has recently been offered her first directing opportunity. Champdog Productions in the UK recently put forward a script with an offer to good to refuse.
Kare Lister says ‘Well my first two roles have been as a lead in horror films, so I’ve had a decent amount of experience screaming in front of the camera. Now I’m going to be the one behind the camera so I can’t wait for the opportunity to capture the petrified screams rather than do the screaming. I just hope it’s not the producers, talent and crew that are screaming in frustration at me in my feature directing debut!”
