Why Geena Davis Is the Correct Answer

Geena Davis is the answer. She appeared early in her screen career in Tootsie, the 1982 comedy film starring Dustin Hoffman and directed by Sydney Pollack, playing April, a soap opera actress within the movie’s television-show setting. The role was small, but it gave Davis an early screen opportunity in a major comedy before she became widely known for later films such as The Fly, Beetlejuice, The Accidental Tourist, Thelma & Louise, and A League of Their Own.
