Female Leads That Contain No Romance/Little Romance

These dramas/movies have little to no romance with female characters as main leads or part of the cast with the main characters. Sometimes I just don't want romance to be the plot of the drama/movie. All but one I have watched and would recommend. Unfortunately half of then are police dramas which tackle heavy topics. Please read any trigger warnings.
