Where Are They Now: Returned to acting and philanthropy

Most of us are familiar with Geena Davis from her parts in Thelma & Louise and A League of Their Own, but the actor claims that after turning 40, it has been more difficult to find good acting jobs. Since nothing she was offered was even quite as exciting as any of her prior parts, Stuart Little was the sole film she made while in her 40s. The Geena Davis Show, in which Davis later starred, was discontinued after its debut season, which Davis claimed that it was tragic. Since then, she has taken on a few minor television parts, shown a strong commitment to philanthropy, and even founded the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media, which attempts to lessen the portrayal of women in stereotypical ways in children’s programming.

Where Are They Now: Fashion Designing

After playing Vanessa Kensington in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, Elizabeth Hurley became well-known. Since then, her collaboration with Estée Lauder and appearance as Queen Helena in The Royals have been career high points. Hurley has stepped back from acting in recent years in favor of other endeavors. Hurley began the modeling profession at the unusually young age of 29, which is unusual in a field that often favors people in their early 20s. Despite this, Hurley is well-known for her modeling prowess and has maintained a passion for fashion, introducing her own swimsuit collection, Elizabeth Hurley Beach, in 2005 at Harrods.
