Their collaboration extended beyond the film, with both artists enjoying a close friendship off-screen.

“I am so very honored to be with The Women’s Image Network this year. W.I.N.’s mission is something that I love, support, and truly believe in. We women must stick together and empower one another,” Ann-Margret stated.

“The Women’s Image Network Awards, since 1993, has been a beacon for gender equality in the media. Tonight, we celebrate not only the achievements of extraordinary women, but also the transformative power of film and television to shape perceptions and inspire change. Film and television possess a unique ability to challenge stereotypes and cultivate empathy. As artists, we hold the brush that paints the diverse tapestry of women’s lives. It is a responsibility I’ve embraced throughout my career, choosing projects that celebrate the strength, resilience, and diversity of women.”
