The Jodie Foster Guide to Aging in Hollywood
Jodie Foster wasn’t born on a set, but she might be the closest thing we have to an industry lifer. Her first gig was at age 3, and by 14 she had played a child sex worker alongside Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver. Foster, now 61, has transformed as an actor, an artist, and a person: from kid star to ingénue, to leading lady and Oscar darling, who along the way became a serious director in her own right. This winter, Foster adds two new roles to that long list of remarkable personalities. First, she plays an indomitable training coach opposite Annette Bening’s dogged ocean swimmer Diana Nyad, in the biopic Nyad. Then, a homicide detective on the hunt for an Alaskan serial killer, in the much-anticipated fourth season of HBO’s True Detective. When you’re a massive talent your whole life, there’s almost nothing you can’t do, except, as Foster admits to the actress Greta Lee, dancing in public. That, she was never good at.
