Sigourney Weaver: 60 and Still Sensational in Avatar
/It’s only the roll of the dice that puts two 60-year-old big name actresses back to back in Redtracker. Yesterday Meryl Streep; today Sigourney Weaver. Coincidentally, neither has a close relationship with Botox or the plastic surgeon.
The Daily Mail writes up Sigourney Weaver: Who said you’re past it at 60? Good question!
Thirty years after the 5’11” feminist icon Weaver made “Alien” , she returns to outer space as another feisty woman - botanist Dr Grace Augustine, who is involved in exploiting and colonising a planet called Pandora in James Cameron’s Avatar.
I’m struck by how women are embracing aging in America.
I love this photo of Weaver with her Death and the Maiden director Roman Rolanski and co-star Toby Jones at last year’s Marrakesh Film Festival. Sigourney Weaver is not a woman trying to look small, and that’s just beautiful.
Here she is as Dr. Grace Augustine in Avatar. Anne
