Felicity Jones plays the iconic Supreme Court justice, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, in the upcoming film based on her life, “On the Basis of Sex.” A newly released trailer for the film follows a young Ginsburg as she starts law school at Harvard, where she was only one of nine other female students in her class.
“Protests are important, but changing the culture means nothing if the law doesn’t change,” Ginsburg says to political activist and fellow lawyer Dorothy Kenyon (Kathy Bates) in the trailer.
It is rumored that Ginsburg herself may make a cameo in the film.
The film written by Daniel Stiepleman and directed by Mimi Leder also stars Armie Hammer and Justin Theroux.
“On the Basis of Sex” set to hit theaters Dec. 25, 2018.
