Stewart, 24, feels that women in Hollywood are given fewer chances than their male counterparts, reported E!Online.
"That's a thing that women have to do- you must persevere. That's what we've been doing. You need to make something that's undeniably good. If a woman makes a bad movie, or does something stupid, then the door just slams shut," Stewart said.
