After #InsecureHBO wrapped up, THR’s Equity in Entertainment honoree #IssaeRae is keeping busy with a five-year overall deal with WarnerMedia, created and executive produced HBO Max comedy 'Rap Sh!t,' and her onscreen career continues to flourish, with an upcoming appearance in Greta Gerwig’s 'Barbie.' ⁠ ⁠ While talking about the changes in the entertainment industry like consolidations and mergers, Rae says ownership and opening doors for others is the only thing that feels different from decades past "when [there was] this fear of losing diversity and going back to the status quo," she says. "There are people with good intentions who are less fearful about speaking up [now], and the democratization of outside voices demanding, 'This is what we want to see and we’re going to hold your feet to the fire until you do something about it.'"
