With plenty of awards and memorable roles to her credit, Anne Hathaway is fully aware of the realities of the Hollywood film industry.
In her new cover story for the October 2015 issue of Glamour UK, the “Les Miserables” star explains, “I hate to admit it, but it’s true -- there are fewer roles and the competition is just as fierce as ever. I look around at my peers and I’m so blown away by their talent and their beauty and their cool style, as well as their ability to be an actress and be a movie star and be good at it. I mean, they’re so good and we’re all trying to get the same parts."
Anne adds, "I can't complain about it because I benefited from it. When I was in my early twenties, parts would be written for women in their fifties and I would get them. And now I'm in my early thirties and I'm like, 'Why did that 24-year-old get that part?' I was that 24-year-old once, I can't be upset about it, it's the way things are. All I can do right now is think that thankfully you have built up perhaps a little bit of cachet and can tell stories that interest you and if people go to see them you'll be allowed to make more."
