Taking a swipe at the Hollywood, Veteran actress Susan Sarandon said that it is `mediocrity` which is rewarded in the industry.

According to Hollywood reporter, Susan made this remark, while she was in London for promoting her new documentary, &quot;Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story&quot;, which tells the story of silver screen legend Hedy Lamarr.

Talking about Lamarr, Sarandon said, &quot;it`s certainly not a requirement to be smart in my business.&quot;Mediocrity is rewarded time and time again. A lot of the time you`re hired because you don`t ask questions. It takes more time to ask questions, it takes more time to fight for something with integrity,&quot; she added.

Sarandon is an acclaimed actress, who won an Academy Award for her performance in &quot;Dead Man Walking&quot; in 1995.She was also vocal on the MeToo movement and addressed the &quot;tricky&quot; nature of films and how they portray sexuality.&quot;It`s very complicated, in my business especially, because it`s all about your sexual currency,&quot; she said. 
 
&quot;Whether you actually deliver to anyone in charge to get a job that way - people hire women they want to be with and men they want to be. And anyone that falls in between is a character actor,&quot; she added.

Adding to the issue, the actress said that it is incorrect to `slut-shame somebody for embracing their seductiveness`.&quot;But, at the same time, you want to have enough power and economic stability to able to say no, to not be in a Harvey Weinstein situation where your work is held hostage and you`re forced to do things you don`t want to do,&quot; Sarandon said
