“How wonderful it is that our careers today can go beyond 40-years-old. We are proving we are pontent and viable,” the 50-year-old said. “When in years gone by, we would have been washed-up by now.” 

She continued: “I just beg that the industry stays behind us, because our stories are finally being told. It’s only the beginning and I’m so proud to be part of a community that is instigating this change, but I applaud the writers, directors, studios and financiers to put passion and money behind our stories.
