Demi Moore Reflects on Career Challenges

In a candid interview with Michelle Yeoh, Demi Moore reflected on her struggles with professional identity after turning 40, particularly following her role in 'Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle'. She shared feelings of alienation from Hollywood, noting that she felt neither youthful enough to fit in with younger actresses nor old enough to embrace the maternal roles typically available to women her age. Moore expressed that the heightened scrutiny of her appearance during the film's promotion made her question her place in the industry, leading to a period of self-doubt about her career. Yeoh echoed Moore's sentiments, highlighting the industry's limited perceptions of older women and the evolving landscape that is beginning to challenge these norms. Despite the challenges, Moore emphasized the importance of injecting new energy into her career to overcome these limitations. Her upcoming project, 'The Substance', has garnered mixed reviews but suggests potential recognition in the awards circuit.
