MacDowell, who is no stranger to embracing her graying hair over the past few years, discussed aging in the spotlight with PEOPLE ahead of theCannes Film Festivalearlier this year.
“Men are seen as really sexy when they start to get wrinkles,” MacDowell told PEOPLE, pointing out that women don’t often have the same positive outlook. “I like all the terms we use for older men. I want to hold onto those terms. I want to be debonair. Why not? What a beautiful term.”
Noting that it’s only in the past few years that she’s felt confident enough to own what in the past could be seen as a detriment to a woman, particularly in Hollywood, the mom of three continued, “There is this time period between 40 and 60 that I think women in the business can struggle because they don’t know what to do. They’ve been seen as one way, but they’re not really seen as what I am now. I was struggling, and I’m much more comfortable with where I am right now. I love being an older woman. I really enjoy it. And it doesn’t feel less sexy.”
“I don’t need to pretend that I’m young anymore because I’m not young, obviously,” she added. “And I just think that’s going to help me, and you have to dig in and make your characters more complex too. You have to struggle and fight with people to make them. You have to fight for what you know. I fight for what I know as an older woman, what I know to be true.”
