I can't worry about whether roles will be there for me when I'm older. They're there now, and I'm just not going to panic.

I can't worry about whether roles will be there for me when I'm older.
The interesting roles have only come since I got into my 30s. But I didn't know that was going to happen.
I've played a lot of younger, more coming-of-age roles as well as roles that aren't such an imposing physical presence.
Whatever is said about roles drying up, I intend to keep working. Certainly now the roles couldn't be more interesting - playing mothers, divorcees. I think it's going to be exciting to play a mother of teenagers. The longer your life, the deeper it gets.
Age is the first limitation on roles that I've ever had to encounter, and I hit that awhile ago.
I have been really lucky to play roles younger than myself for most of my career.
I hope to find the roles that are age appropriate but not yearning to be younger, or parenting ad nauseam.
One role blends into the next role. I mean, there's strange idiosyncrasies from roles that I play that I picked up that will never go away.
I am happy being able to play roles with people my age because once you do something really mature there is no turning back.
I just want to keep at it. I can't wait to see, after years of being around, the roles I can play when I'm a crazy old lady.
