"Feeling the sting at 32″
An article written last year for Independent, a British journalism platform, notes the rather reserved stance that Anne Hathaway had taken about already being passed over for roles at 32, roles that are going to, you guessed it, younger women. "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," she told Glamour. "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."
