Demi Moore, a Hollywood icon with a career spanning decades, has finally earned her first-ever Oscar nomination, marking a significant milestone in her journey as an actress. Following her recent Golden Globe win for her role in The Substance, the news of her Academy Award nomination was met with overwhelming joy from both fans and industry peers.
In a touching tribute, Moore’s Charlie’s Angels co-stars—Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Lucy Liu—organized a special virtual reunion to celebrate her achievement. The four actresses, who worked together in Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle in 2003, shared fond memories of their time on set and reflected on Moore’s perseverance in an industry that often overlooks female talent after a certain age.
Moore plays a fading celebrity in The Substance, a thriller exploring the dangers of a black-market drug designed to restore youth. The role resonates deeply with Moore, who has previously spoken about the intense scrutiny she faced after Charlie’s Angels and her decision to step back from Hollywood for a period of self-reflection.
In an emotional moment during their reunion, Barrymore praised Moore’s resilience, saying, “Demi, you have paved the way for so many of us. You’ve shown that talent, grace, and strength transcend age, and we couldn’t be prouder.” Fans of the actress have taken to social media to celebrate her comeback, with many hoping that this recognition will lead to even more substantial roles in the future.
