Kim Cattrall is everywhere right now.
Along with the actress stunning Sex and the City fans by confirming she would cameo in the next And Just Like That season, she has given a revealing interview about the expectations around ageing in Hollywood.
In an interview with The Sunday Times, the 66-year-old most known for playing SATC icon Samantha Jones said that to "look like the best version,” of herself, she hasn't shied away from Botox and surgery.
“I’m in my sixties now and I’m all about battling ageing in every way I can,” she told the UK newspaper.

“There are fillers, Botox, there’s so many different things that you can investigate and try and see if it’s for you."
The actress clarified that the work she's had done on her face is "not just a vanity thing," but rather she does it to preserve a certain look that she knows is the reason she gets roles. "I play a certain kind of woman who looks a certain kind of way. And professionally I am looking after myself,” she said.
This isn't the first time Cattrall has opened up about the realities of ageing in an industry that largely platforms youthful women.
In a 2020 interview with People, she reflected on how turning 50 had affected her choice of roles. "It was a gradual change, but the scripts were cut in half. [In Hollywood] you're either an ingenue or a leading lady and then a divorced wife or a cougar. And I'm none of those things," she said.
