    CAMERON DIAZ KICKS *** OF THE CURSE OF 39

    Cameron Diaz retired from acting after her last film – a remake of Annie in which she played Miss Hannigan – was released in 2014. She casually confirmed that she was no longer acting in an interview with EW in 2018, telling her co-stars of the early noughties romcom The Sweetest Thing that she was “actually retired”.

    Now she is coming out of retirement after eight years. Jamie Foxx broke the news on Twitter, announcing that he and Diaz would be starring in a new film for Netflix called, appropriately, Back in Action.

    Not much is known about the film, but Deadline is calling it an “action-comedy” and production will start this year. Diaz, who will turn 50 next month, is most known for her comedy work, but a glance at her IMDb page is a reminder of her sheer range, from Being John Malkovich to Shrek [voice role] to There’s Something About Myrna.

    Men get to be action heroes for as long as they want. Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves are still box office titans. One of the most awaited films of the next couple of years is the fifth Indiana Jones movie, starring Harrison Ford, who is now 79.

    The same is starting to apply to women. The biggest role in years for Charlize Theron, 46, was as an immortal warrior in The Old Guard. Carrie-Anne Moss, 54, returned to The Matrix. Sandra Bullock, 57, pulled off a retro action hit with The Lost City. It is horror, more than action, but Jamie Lee Curtis, 63, is about to leave the Halloween franchise after 44 years with Halloween Ends.

    There has long been plenty of debate and satire about what happens to female movie stars after they turn 40; and a few years back Mrs Bruce Willis Cogerson put together a highly comprehensive and scholarly survey which showed: nothing positive had actually been happening up to that time in the careers of actress after the age of 39.

    But NOW in action films at least there appears to be a clear answer: they get to kick ***!”.

      1. Thanks for your acknowledgements of the return of a great star.

        Glad Bob Cox picked up the Myrna reference. I say to anyone who is a Cogerson viewer that like The Poor in the Bible Myrna “will always be with you!”

        Keep safe

        1. Hey Bob…hopefully she will start making movies again versus it being a one and done situation

    1. Hey Bob. I saw this news, and I thought of you. Glad to hear she is coming back. It is hard to believe it has almost been a full decade since her last movie. Good information. Good comment.
