'It's unusual to watch yourself age on film,' Carla Gugino told her friend, fellow actor Lena Headey. 'It is brutal and it's also liberating.'

. Since the ‘90s, the former model and low-key owner of one of the best Q Scores in Hollywood has brought her effervescence to everything from fun romps like the, a series airing on Max which follows four female journalists as they stick it out on a presidential campaign.

GUGINO: For sure. It’s been a while, those days when I auditioned a lot and was up for things and I wonder if in some of the instances whether I felt like I had a better shot at it than I did. There’s definitely been some heartbreakers, but I’m not coming up with them right now.GUGINO: To just get in the room, that was always the plus of not getting a job. At least I had that experience with that director and there was something creative about it.

GUGINO: Totally. I just saw this documentary on Paul Simon. The interesting thing is watching a brilliant artist and his creative process and now, in his ‘80s. He lost his hearing in one ear for a period of time, and it makes you grateful for those muscles that allow us to keep jumping off the cliff. The world right now is in such a dire state and it’s so hard to figure out how to be useful. As storytellers, hopefully, we can give empathy. When I was 13, I saw Meryl Streep do.

GUGINO: I definitely felt stuck, and it’s not always my choice to say no. There’s the flip side of a coin, too. When I did, which has been a super successful movie, I had an amazing creative experience on it. Every new generation of kids loves it. I was 27 when I did that. I was supposed to have been a spy for 10 years and then had two kids, who are nine and 11. But I was 27. Robert Rodriguez said, “If we do this right, no one will ever question it,” and it’s true that they never did.
