This shift has led to a increase in diverse storytelling, with more movies and TV shows featuring underrepresented groups. The success of films like "Black Panther" and "Crazy Rich Asians" demonstrates the appetite for diverse content.

Contrary to the "naysayers" who predicted her career would suffer, Ward maintains that her move into adult entertainment has actually increased the respect she receives, even from those within Hollywood.
