Parker Posey: 'It's hard to work in studio movies'

Parker Posey has said that she finds it difficult to land a role in studio movies.

The actress, who hosted this weekend's Sundance Film Festival, confessed that she struggles to convince people that she can star in a big-budget movie.

"I'm trying to work in studio movies, but they won't hire me," Posey told Indiewire. "I get feedback from my agent saying, 'She's too much of an indie queen'.

"And then on the other side, my name doesn't get the financing to do a movie over $1 million. And I'm called 'the indie queen'," she continued.

"So it's really a challenging path because I know so much about the indie side of the business. Because I grew up in it. It's like I'm back in junior high here at Sundance. There's John Cooper and Trevor Groth and we all grew up together, you know? But it's different times. And this stuff gets projected onto me."

Posey recently signed on to return to The Good Wife.
