Michelle Rodriguez Doesn't Trust Hollywood Writers  6/1/06

Lost star Michelle Rodriguez is planning to write her own romantic comedy, because she doesn't trust Hollywood screenwriters to create good parts for women.

The actress reveals she has deliberately targeted tougher roles so far in her career.

She says, "I've always turned down the girlfriend roles or the best friend who gets killed at the beginning of a movie! Most writers in Hollywood are guys who don't know how to write the perfect balance between feminine and masculine.

"Until I can write and produce my own stuff, I'd rather be the tough butch chick."
