Kim Cattrall sees no future for herself in Hollywood because they simply don't respect or have roles for many women over 50. "Hollywood is not in my future," she announced during the Aruba Film Festival this past weekend promoting her new flick 'Meet Monica Velour.'Cattrall gained weight for her role in the independent flick where she plays a down-on-her-luck porn star way past her prime, but she says she isn't interested in all the upkeep it takes (including plastic surgery) to get directors in Tinseltown to give her the time of day now that she is 54-years-old.
"I am not interested in being a Barbie Doll and turning myself into a sausage in the next twenty years," Cattrall said. "I want to go the road of actresses like Helen Mirren and Judy Dench who have lines on their face and aren't afraid of playing their age."
Those women may not be afraid to play their age, but there are few directors who want them, Cattrall says, which is why the 'Sex and the City' sexpot sees her future in the theater and in television, primarily outside of America.
"There aren't enough roles for women over 50," Cattrall told PopEater. "Directors here aren't interested in us. We have to go out there and make them for ourselves which is what I did with 'Monica Velour.'"

Kim is so cool. I love the part she plays in SATC. She is who she is, and that's that. More actresses should feel so confident about themselves. That's right Kim, don't let Tinsel Town change you. You don't need them.

Good for her, I remember in her earlier days playing sex pots she'd
always go to the press saying 'I don't deserve this role, give it to a more mature woman, and leave me careerless' but they wouldn't listen damn it, they just wouldn't listen

I am so inspired to read this! Thank you Kim!! Aging gracefully will get you more roles than looking like an alien. And the trailer for Monica Velour looks Grrrrrreat! I am so happy for you and that role! You're not done and I will look forward to watching you age as an example of true beauty! Thank you!

Ladies we have to step up and start writing stories, producing plays, directing films, etc. Don't let the men keep all the power. We are educated now, lets move forward and show it.
Personally I love all the older actresses. I think they are the greatest, and the world misses out when they don't employ them.

Kim looks great to be in her 50s.
But hollywood has been dumping older woman since it begin making movies. Its just the way it is, and always will be.
I dont think we need to worry about Kim, shes made millions in her life, way more than the working stiff could ever make.

There are roles for women her age. Her problem is that no one wants to watch HER. I love seeing older women on screen that age gracefully but she isn't one of them. She is far too annoying to be respected in the group of women she wants to be included in.

I would rather see her on the screen than the other Kim...at least she's got talent. She is still very good looking and a great actress.

I guess I don't count in H'wood's mind either due to my age but Kim will always be fine as wine to me, and yes she DOES get better with age!!

What is she talking about? She starred in the greatest movie ever made - Mannequin.

This is so stupid. This woman has HAD plastic surgery (several) and enough Botox, fillers, and collagen to kill a horse.

I really love and admire Kim Cattrall. I loved her in Sex and the City and hope that Hollywood will be smart enough to continue to give women over 50 roles.
