The Matrix actress, 53, opened up about ageism and expectations in Hollywood during a talk with Face: One Square Foot of Skin author Justine Bateman at New York’s 92nd Street Y cultural centre earlier this month.The Hollywood Reporter writes that Bateman, who is also an actress (Family Ties, Desperate Housewives), spoke of the “psychotic” expectation that women should be “cutting up our faces” to land roles, which spurred Moss to explain her experiences.Moss, who reprises her role as Trinity in The Matrix 4 next year, said: “I had heard that at 40 everything changed.“I didn’t believe in that because I don’t believe in just jumping on a thought system that I don’t really align with.
