m Undid revision 883976201 by Dawnleelynn (talk) No, I'm only changing the pronouns of Rose McGowan, not for everyone else and not for the characters they've played, which I've made sure of. If I've made a typo with another person please fix that instead of reverting the whole edit. Thank you!

The piece was commissioned by UK's Heist Gallery, and is set to have special screenings at the Institute of Light in [[East London]] on December 15 and 16, with proceeds going to the charity Refuge.<ref>https://www.theartnewspaper.com/blog/rose-mcgowan-back-on-screen-in-all-encompassing-art-film</ref>

In September 2008, McGowan caused controversy while promoting her film ''[[Fifty Dead Men Walking]]'' at a [[Toronto International Film Festival]] press conference, when she stated, "I imagine, had I grown up in Belfast, I would 100% have been in the IRA. My heart just broke for the cause. Violence is not to be played out daily and provide an answer to problems, but I understand it." This prompted director [[Kari Skogland]] and the film's producers to issue a public apology, stating that McGowan's views did not reflect their own.<ref>{{cite news|title=Director apologises for Rose McGowan's IRA comments |url=http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/entertainment/film-tv/news/director-apologises-for-rose-mcgowans-ira-comments-13978481.html|work=[[Belfast Telegraph]]|date=September 19, 2008|access-date=February 3, 2018}}</ref>

In November 2014, while discussing misogyny and sexism during [[Bret Easton Ellis]]' podcast, McGowan criticized the gay community for not doing more to help the cause of women's rights, saying, "I see now, basically, people who've fought for the right to stand on top of a float wearing an orange speedo and take [[MDMA|molly]]. And, I see no help, and I see no paying it forward, and I have a huge problem with that. There are so many things to help and do, and I see no extending of a hand outside of the gay community to another community. And that's a problem for me." Rose McGowan also stated, "Gays are misogynistic as straight men, if not more so. I have an indictment of the gay community right now. I'm actually really upset with them."

Rose Arianna McGowan[1] (born September 5, 1973) is an American activist, actress, author, model, and singer.[2] After their film debut in a brief role in the comedy Encino Man (1992), McGowan achieved wider recognition for their performance in Gregg Araki's dark comedy The Doom Generation (1995), receiving an Independent Spirit Award nomination for Best Debut Performance. They had their breakthrough in the horror film Scream (1996) and subsequently headlined the films Going All the Way (1997), Devil in the Flesh (1998) and Jawbreaker (1999). During the 2000s, McGowan became known to television audiences for their role as Paige Matthews in The WB supernatural drama series Charmed (2001–2006), and starred in Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's double-feature film Grindhouse (2007). They made their directorial debut with the short film Dawn (2014).

A feminist activist, McGowan has released a memoir, Brave, and starred in the four-part docuseries Citizen Rose, both in 2018. They have been the cover of numerous magazines, including Seventeen, Interview, Maxim, GQ, Entertainment Weekly, and Rolling Stone.[3][4] In 2017, Time recognized McGowan as one of the Silence Breakers, the magazine's Person of the Year, for speaking out about sexual assault and harassment.[4]

Early life

McGowan was born in Certaldo, Tuscany[1] to American couple Daniel McGowan, an artist,[1] and Terri, a writer. They also have two half-siblings.[5] Their father ran an Italian chapter of the Children of God, in which both he and his wife held membership until 1978.[6] McGowan spent their early childhood at the group's communes, often traveling through Europe with their parents.[5]

Through their father's art contacts in Italy, they became a child model and appeared in Vogue Bambini and various other Italian magazines. Their parents returned to the United States when Rose was 10 years old, and settled in Eugene, Oregon.[5][7] McGowan had an untraditional childhood, living as a teenage runaway in Portland, Oregon and associating with a group of drag queens in the city.[5][8] When their parents divorced, they lived with their father in Seattle, Washington, attended Roosevelt High School and Nova Alternative High School, and worked at McDonald's. They took ballet lessons until they were 13. At 15, they officially emancipated theirself from their parents[9] and moved to Los Angeles.

Career

Early roles and breakthrough (1992–2000)

After making their Hollywood film debut with a brief role in the Pauly Shore comedy Encino Man (1992), McGowan was cast in the leading role in Gregg Araki's dark comedy The Doom Generation (1995), which revolved around a threesome of teens who embark on a sex and violence-filled journey. The film brought them much wider recognition and the attention of film critics; they received a nomination for Best Debut Performance at the 1996 Independent Spirit Awards. McGowan next obtained the role of Tatum Riley in the slasher cult film Scream (1996), as the casting director believed they best embodied the "spunky", "cynical" but "innocent" nature of the ill-fated character.[10] Upon its release, the film became a huge critical and financial success, grossing over $100 million in North America and $173 million worldwide.[11] Amid their growing public profile, they were the cover model for the Henry Mancini tribute album Shots in the Dark, which was released in 1996, and became the face of American clothing company Bebe from 1998 to 1999.

In 1997, they appeared in the short film Seed, directed by San Francisco-born filmmaker Karin Thayer, and played opposite Peter O'Toole in the 1998 film adaptation of the Dean Koontz novel Phantoms. McGowan spent the majority of the late 1990s headlining a variety of independent films, including roles in Nowhere (1997), where they reunited with Araki, as well as Southie (1996), Going All the Way (1997), Lewis and Clark and George (1997), and Devil in the Flesh (1998), where they usually played seductive and mysterious characters. They gained much attention for the revealing fishnet outfit they wore to the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards.[12][13][14][15]

In the dark comedy Jawbreaker (1999), they portrayed a popular yet malevolent high school student who tries to cover up her involvement in a classmate's murder. McGowan based their performance on that of Gene Tierney's sociopathic character in Leave Her to Heaven (1945).[16] To accompany the release of the film, Imperial Teen's music video for the song Yoo Hoo featured McGowan as their character harassing the band members with jawbreakers.[17] Jawbreaker was critical and commercial failure, but found success through home video release and subsequent television airings; it has developed a cult following.[18] McGowan earned a nomination for Best Villain at the 1999 MTV Movie Awards.

Charmed and Grindhouse (2001–2007)

In 2001, McGowan obtained the role of Paige Matthews in the popular WB supernatural drama series Charmed, as a replacement for the lead actress Shannen Doherty, who had left the show. In the show, about the trio of witches using their combined powers to protect innocent lives from evil beings, McGowan played the character from season four until its finale. In a review of the fourth season, Leigh H. Edwards of PopMatters added that the addition of Paige was "contrived and clunky", but welcomed the idea of McGowan joining the show as a witch "since [they have] major goth cred as Marilyn Manson's former flame."[19] DVD Verdict's Cynthia Boris wrote that McGowan brought "a youthfulness" and "a fresh viewer perspective" to Charmed, further noting that "fans have come to enjoy [their] presence on the show."[20] Sara Paige and Rachel Hyland of Geek Speak magazine described Paige as "snarky, compassionate and whimsical," and believed that "McGowan was well-suited for the role."[21] At the 2001 Wand Awards, McGowan was nominated for Best New Cast Member and at the 2005 Family Television Awards, they won Favorite Sister for their performance.

McGowan at the 2007 premiere of Grindhouse

McGowan starred alongside Brendan Fraser, Bridget Fonda, and Whoopi Goldberg in the dark fantasy comedy Monkeybone (2001) as a cat girl from a limbo-like carnival landscape where nightmares are entertainment. Budgeted at US$75 million, the film only made US$7.6 million;[22] McGowan felt that film "would’ve been incredible (at least the underworld part) if the men at 20th Century Fox (the suits) hadn’t fired the director, a true artist, Henry Selick [half] the way through filming", and called his dismissal a "profoundly stupid move".[23] During Charmed, McGowan portrayed actress-singer Ann-Margret in the CBS miniseries Elvis (2005), about the life of Elvis Presley. They also appeared briefly as the roommate of the titular character in Brian De Palma's The Black Dahlia (2006), a film noir shot in Los Angeles and Bulgaria and opposite Josh Hartnett, Scarlett Johansson, Aaron Eckhart and Hilary Swank.

In 2007, McGowan headlined Grindhouse, a double feature horror film by directors Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez. In Rodriguez's segment, Planet Terror, they starred as a go-go dancer and the leader of a group of rebels attempting to survive an onslaught of zombie-like creatures as they feud with a rogue military unit, while in Tarantino's segment, Death Proof, they played a brief role as a victim of a misogynistic, psychopathic stuntman who targets young women with his "death proof" stunt car. While Grindhouse made a lackluster US$25.5 million in its theatrical release,[24] it was the subject of much media coverage and critical acclaim from critics; James Berardinelli found McGowan to be the "standout here" and Mick LaSalle considered the film as "the best showcase of [McGowan's] career so far".[25][26]

Independent film route (2008–2013)

Her next film release, Fifty Dead Men Walking (2008), revolved around Martin McGartland, a British agent who went undercover into the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA). McGowan played a woman in the upper ranks of the organisation who offers herself to McGartland. After the film concluded shooting, McGowan sparked controversy in the United Kingdom, where they stated that they would have joined the IRA had they lived in Belfast during the era and that their "heart just broke for the cause".[27] The film found a limited audience in theaters[28] while critical response was positive.[29] Also in 2008, McGowan took on a recurring role as a con artist on the acclaimed drama series Nip/Tuck, and co-hosted the TCM's film-series program The Essentials alongside Robert Osbourne, discussing classic Hollywood film.[30]

In 2010, McGowan shot a cameo in the Robert Rodriguez feature Machete, a role ultimately cut, but included on the DVD release, and played a semi-homeless junkie in the fantasy drama Dead Awake. In the 3-D sword and sorcery film Conan the Barbarian (2011), a reimagining of the 1982 film of the same name which starred Arnold Schwarzenegger, McGowan starred as an evil half-human/half-witch.[31][32] Roger Ebert described their role as a "piece of work", writing: "[McGowan has] white pancake makeup, blood red lips, cute little facial tattoos and wickedly sharp metal talons on [their] fingers".[33] Filming occurred between March and July 2010 in Bulgaria, and Conan was released on August 19, 2011.[34] Budgeted at US$90 million, the film received negative reviews,[35] and only grossed US$48.8 worldwide.[36]

McGowan at The Heart Truth's Red Dress Collection Fashion Show in 2012

Besides their role in the big-budgeted Conan, McGowan starred in mainly independent productions during the early 2010s, such as the psychological thriller Rosewood Lane (2011) from director Victor Salva, the made-for-television film The Pastor's Wife (2011), alongside Michael Shanks, and a film adaptation of The Tell-Tale Heart, released in 2016. McGowan lent their voice to the video games Darkwatch, playing a femme fatale named Tala, and Terminator Salvation, as a troubled soldier named Angie Salter. They guest-starred in an episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit as a grifter who targets New York sex clubs, and also in two episodes of Once Upon A Time between 2012 and 2014, playing the role of the young Cora Mills.

Professional expansion (2014–present)

In the third season of Chosen (2014), a television series airing via Crackle, McGowan took on the role of an experienced hunter. They made their directorial debut with a short film called Dawn, which revolved around a teen from a strict family falls under the spell of a gas-station employee. The 17-minute piece premiered at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival, to critical acclaim; IndieWire noted: "This was a real gem of a short film. Dawn‘s salient literary and cultural references, paired with the film’s high production value, gorgeous shots, its slow-burner buildup and gripping conclusion, bring something to the table for everyone, and portends an excellent directorial career for McGowan".[37]

In September 2015, McGowan released their debut single, titled "RM486". The song has strong feminist themes, with its title being a play on the abortion drug RU486 and McGowan's initials.[38] The Sound (2017), an independent Canadian horror film, starred McGowan as a best-selling author and paranormal investigator alongside Christopher Lloyd and Michael Eklund.[39] The Hollywood Reporter wrote of their role: "Despite [their] sympathetic situation, [it] isn’t a particularly interesting character. A dismissive attitude and superior self-regard don’t improve [their] likability either. McGowan seems comfortable with the role, however [...]".[40]

On January 30, 2018, McGowan released a memoir, Brave, in which they detail their childhood and their account of the assault by Harvey Weinstein and its aftermath.[41][42][43] On January 31, 2018, Citizen Rose, a four-part documentary series produced by Bunim/Murray Productions following McGowan and their role in the Me Too movement premiered.[44][45] In August 2018, McGowan was announced to receive the Inspiration Award at the GQ Men Of The Year Awards.[46]

McGowan appears in the art film Indecision IV, which combines dance and gender issues. "Shot in one continuous take, the film [...] was created in May 2018, during a watershed moment in McGowan's life and is a physical expression of [their] state of mind at that time," a press statement stated. The piece was commissioned by UK's Heist Gallery, and is set to have special screenings at the Institute of Light in East London on December 15 and 16, with proceeds going to the charity Refuge.[47]

==Appearances in music==/ While dating Marilyn Manson, McGowan appeared in a music video for the song "Coma White";[48] they performed backing vocals on the song "Posthuman".[49] Both of these songs appear on the album Mechanical Animals (1998).[50]

McGowan appeared on a Brian Transeau track called "Superfabulous", from his album Emotional Technology, which was also featured on the final Charmed soundtrack, The Final Chapter.[51] The song has been featured in several films, including Win a Date with Tad Hamilton![52] and Raising Helen. They wrote and recorded a song titled "Protection", which was featured in their film Strange Hearts (2011). McGowan has also appeared in the Imperial Teen music video for "Yoo Hoo",[53] which was featured on the Jawbreaker soundtrack, and they recorded the theme song from the film Dead Awake (2010).

McGowan has expressed interest in recording an album of their own. During an interview with Living TV, they said, "I was actually thinking of going back and doing more soulful tunes and older tunes ... and I would love to, when I have a little bit more time." In the Charmed episode "Sense and Sense Ability", McGowan performed, in character, a cover of the Peggy Lee classic "Fever". They performed three songs from the Planet Terror portion of Grindhouse, released on the film's soundtrack by the Varèse Sarabande label.[54] The songs are entitled "You Belong to Me" (a Dean Martin/Jo Stafford cover), "Useless Talent #32", and "Two Against the World".

They appeared briefly in the music video for the 2014 single "Break the Rules" by Charli XCX.[55]

Personal life

McGowan with James Gandolfini in Kuwait, March 31, 2010

McGowan is an activist for LGBT rights[56][57] and campaigned against California's Proposition 8,[57] which sought to ban same-sex marriage in the state in 2008.[56] They are also known as an activist for Boston Terriers. They have two, named Bug and Fester, and has personally donated to various Boston Terrier rescues. McGowan reportedly encouraged friends to donate to Boston Terrier Rescue Net, and according to BTRN: "Having fallen in love with Bug and Fester, their friends donated generously. It amounted to a considerable contribution, which will go a long way in helping BTRN and the needy volunteers who selflessly give to deserving Bostons."[58]

In late 2009, McGowan was among several celebrities who participated in the protest NOH8.[57]

In March 2018, McGowan came out as non-binary.[59] As of 2018, McGowan resides in Mayfair, London.[60]

In January 2019, McGowan pleaded no contest to a misdemeanour drug charge in Virginia after cocaine was found in a wallet they left behind at Dulles International Airport two years previously. They received a US$2,500 fine and a suspended jail sentence.[61]

Relationships

In the early 1990s, McGowan, then a relative unknown, was involved for two years with a man they refer to as William, who, they claim, kept buying them exercise equipment and fashion magazines in an effort to persuade them to get thinner. They developed an eating disorder in their unsuccessful efforts to get their weight down to 84 pounds (38 kg) like the women in the magazines. "I never was able to get below 92 pounds (42 kg)," they wrote later. "I felt like a failure."[62]

That relationship and the eating disorder ended in early 1993 when McGowan met Brett Cantor, a part-owner of Hollywood's Dragonfly nightclub. They came to believe he was their soul mate;[63] however he was brutally stabbed to death in his house that July, leaving them "shattered". The killing remains unsolved, and McGowan continues to support efforts to identify a suspect and close the case.[62]

McGowan had a three-and-a-half-year relationship with rock musician Marilyn Manson. After a formal engagement lasting two years, McGowan ended the relationship in 2001 over "lifestyle differences".[64]

Prior to the release of Grindhouse, there was speculation that McGowan was dating director Robert Rodriguez.[65][66] In May 2007, it was reported that they confirmed their relationship while appearing hand-in-hand at the Cannes Film Festival.[67] On October 12, 2007, it was announced by Zap2it.com that McGowan was engaged to Rodriguez.[68] They reportedly split in October 2009.[69]

In July 2013, after one year of dating, McGowan became engaged to artist Davey Detail.[70] They married on October 12, 2013 in Los Angeles.[71] In February 2016, they filed for divorce from Detail, citing irreconcilable differences.[72] The divorce was finalized in November 2016.[73] McGowan is currently in a relationship with model Rain Dove.[74]

Controversies

In September 2008, McGowan caused controversy while promoting their film Fifty Dead Men Walking at a Toronto International Film Festival press conference, when they stated, "I imagine, had I grown up in Belfast, I would 100% have been in the IRA. My heart just broke for the cause. Violence is not to be played out daily and provide an answer to problems, but I understand it." This prompted director Kari Skogland and the film's producers to issue a public apology, stating that McGowan's views did not reflect their own.[75]

In an August 2011 interview, McGowan talked about their experience working on the film Rosewood Lane with director Victor Salva, who is a convicted child molester and child pornographer,[76][77] stating, "I still don't really understand the whole story or history there, and I'd rather not, because it's not really my business. But he's an incredibly sweet and gentle man."[76]

In May 2014, McGowan held a defiant party in support of the Brunei-owned Beverly Hills Hotel, despite a boycott over Brunei's anti-gay laws, which prescribes death by stoning for same-sex activities.[78] McGowan explained their stance on the issue thus: "Boycotts only work when they hurt the target's bottom line. We are never going to affect the sultan's bottom line. He's worth $20 billion! This is a vanity project for him. It could sit empty for 100 years and he wouldn't even notice. But meanwhile, we're hurting all the wonderful, struggling people who work in the hotel. I'd like him to see that gays are real people. I think that's the only thing that would change his mind, not a boycott."[79]

In November 2014, while discussing misogyny and sexism during Bret Easton Ellis' podcast, McGowan criticized the gay community for not doing more to help the cause of women's rights, saying, "I see now, basically, people who've fought for the right to stand on top of a float wearing an orange speedo and take molly. And, I see no help, and I see no paying it forward, and I have a huge problem with that. There are so many things to help and do, and I see no extending of a hand outside of the gay community to another community. And that's a problem for me." Rose McGowan also stated, "Gays are misogynistic as straight men, if not more so. I have an indictment of the gay community right now. I'm actually really upset with them." The characterization of LGBT rights activism being centered on drug use and wearing revealing clothing in public were criticized as homophobic or transphobic.[80][81][82][83][84] They later apologized for generalizing gay men as misogynistic, but defended the rest of their comments.[85]

In June 2015, McGowan sparked controversy with a Twitter post making public what was perceived as a sexist casting call for an Adam Sandler film. McGowan later said, "It was just so dumb. I was offended by the stupidity more than anything. I was offended by the fact that went through so many people's hands and nobody red flagged it. This is normal to so many people. It was probably even a girl that had to type it up. It's institutionally OK."[86] This reportedly led to McGowan being fired by their agent. They later clarified that talent agent Sheila Wenzel was not responsible for "firing" them after they took a stand against sexism in Hollywood.[87][88] "I'm interested in making the industry better so that women following in my footsteps know that they don't have to take abuse just because she wants be creative," the actress told People magazine regarding alleged misogyny in the film industry.[89]

In 2015, McGowan criticized Caitlyn Jenner for stating that "the hardest part about being a woman is figuring out what to wear," after Jenner had been named "Woman of the Year" by Glamour. McGowan stated, "We are more than deciding what to wear. We are more than the stereotypes foisted upon us by people like you. You're a woman now? Well f**cking learn that we have had a VERY different experience than your life of male privilege."[81][90] In response to accusations of transphobia, McGowan stated, "Let me take this moment to point out that I am not, nor will I ever be, transphobic. The idea is laughable. Disliking something a trans person has said is no different than disliking something a man has said or that a woman has said. Being trans doesn't make one immune from criticism."[91]

Harvey Weinstein rape and sexual harassment allegations

When The New York Times revealed in October 2017 that they were part of a settlement involving movie mogul Harvey Weinstein in an alleged sexual harassment case, McGowan declined to comment.[92] "Women fight on," they wrote afterwards. "And to the men out there, stand up. We need you as allies." According to the Times, Weinstein has reached at least eight settlements, including McGowan, who reached a $100,000 settlement with Weinstein after an encounter in a hotel room with the executive producer in 1997 during the Sundance Film Festival.[92][93]

McGowan speaking about the Me Too movement in July 2018

On October 10, 2017, McGowan stated that Harvey Weinstein had behaved inappropriately with them. They accused actor Ben Affleck of lying after Affleck said in a statement that he was "angry" over Weinstein's alleged abuse, but did not indicate whether he knew about it.[94] Via Twitter, they also attacked other men in the movie industry, tweeting, "All of you Hollywood 'A-list' golden boys are LIARS....You all knew."[95][96]

On October 12, McGowan alleged that Harvey Weinstein had raped them, and that Amazon Studios dropped their project after they complained.[97] On the same day, McGowan said that Twitter suspended their account for 12 hours after they repeatedly tweeted about Weinstein's alleged sexual misconduct, including toward McGowan.[98] Twitter explained that McGowan's account had violated its privacy policy because one of their tweets included a private phone number. The New York Times reported, "Many Twitter users expressed outrage over ... McGowan's account being locked." After the tweet was removed, their account was unlocked several hours before the 12-hour ban was set to expire.[96] Through his lawyer, David Boies, Weinstein at one point hired the private intelligence agency Black Cube to spy on McGowan and to stop outlets such as The New York Times and The New Yorker from reporting their investigations on Harvey Weinstein. Boies' law firm, Boies, Schiller & Flexner, had provided The Times with legal counsel over the course of the previous decade, including on one libel case. Upon learning that the firm was working to hinder its reporting on Weinstein while simultaneously representing them in other matters, The Times published a stern rebuke of the firm, calling their actions "intolerable conduct, a grave betrayal of trust, and a breach of the basic professional standards that all lawyers are required to observe."[99]

On February 7, 2018, Jill Messick, McGowan's manager at the time of the alleged rape in 1997, committed suicide.[100] Messick's family blamed Weinstein, the media, the public, and McGowan for her death.[101]
