Overview
- In remarks reported on January 20, Kruger said women can disagree yet remain “sisters,” calling for the same easy camaraderie long associated with male “boys’ clubs.”
- She argued women have historically been pitted against one another and said shared goals reveal what is possible when they act together.
- Kruger’s comments accompany promotion for The Seduction, in which she plays Madame de Rosemonde, a wealthy and independent aristocrat in 18th-century France.
- The character guides a young marquise into high society without yielding to male-dominated norms, including the line, “Seduction is simple… you must learn to control men.”
- Kruger previously told the Today Show in December that it was fun to play the role as “bossy and wicked,” underscoring the part’s assertive edge.
