She said on stage: ’30 years ago, a producer told me I was a popcorn actress.

“At the time I took that to mean that this wasn’t something I was allowed to do, that I could make movies that were successful, that made a lot of money, but that couldn’t be recognized.

“I bought it and I believed it, and that eroded me over time, to the point where a few years ago I thought maybe this was it, maybe it was complete, maybe it had done what it was supposed to do.” ‘

It was at that “low point,” Demi said, that she received the script for The Substance, which she called “magical, bold, brave, innovative (and) absolutely crazy.” “The universe told me you’re not done yet,” he added.
