The Matrix 4 star Carrie-Anne Moss opened up about how quickly she got offered Grandma roles. She spoke to Justine Bateman about the experience of turning 40 during the 92nd Street Y event. Moss is now 53, and her biggest role has been in The Matrix franchise. But, some of her comments here could explain why she seemed to disappear from some of these lead roles basically overnight. Moss told her friend that the literal day she turned 40, scripts began coming in for Grandma roles. The star likened this to skipping a step almost. It is no secret that Hollywood can be abrasive and sometimes bewildering. But, one of the key figures in a pop-culture touchstone couldn’t even read for some of these younger parts because of her age. It’s interesting to hear the actress talk about the experience and hopefully will cause some other performers to share their experiences.
