The Watch Where Sleeping Dogs Lie Onlinemost buzzed-about moment at this year's Oscars wasn't a Jimmy Kimmel bit or a presenter flub. It was Frances McDormand's acceptance speech.
With two words – "inclusion rider" – McDormand called on her colleagues to take action against the industry's lack of diversity. The question was no longer what Hollywood's top talents coulddo, but what they woulddo.

In the days since McDormand's speech, a growing number of top-tier talents have publicly pledged to adopt inclusion riders going forward.
Below, find a continually updated list of filmmakers who've answered McDormand's call.

Larson was one of the first major stars to commit to using an inclusion rider, tweeting out her support within minutes of McDormand's speech.

Feig followed up by speaking with The Guardianabout his decision. "It's not that hard to do, and it's just common sense."
“It’s the right thing to do," he added. "It’s up to artists and film-makers to set the example, then the studios have to follow."
At the end of the day, whether filmmakers actually hire marginalized people matters more than whether or not they say they're going to do so. Still, it matters that so many high-profile stars are going on the record about this.
When power players like Michael B. Jordan and Paul Feig step up to announce they're adopting inclusion riders, it sends a message to their colleagues, to their fans, and to the rest of the world that paying lip service to diversity isn't enough. There needs to be action backing up those PR-friendly words.
Not everyone will feel comfortable adopting an inclusion rider. Not everyone has the clout to push for one. But for those who are able and willing, it's a simple, powerful tool for change – and these committed advocates are showing the rest of the industry how to wield it.
Mashable will continue to update this list as more filmmakers sign up for inclusion riders.
