“As I approach my 43rd year on this planet that nasty insecure voice in me has started to go from a roar to a whisper,” she shared. “With age…that wisdom is knowing not only who you really are but what you will and will not stand for no matter what anyone.”
“So I speak up today and say with zero hesitation or regret…14, 16, 17, 18 hour work days are NOT safe,” she added. “They are NOT healthy. They can not and should NO longer be tolerated.”
The actress also took a moment to praise the production members that she’s worked, saying, “I grew up on film sets and the crews I’ve always been surrounded by have been a kind of family to me.”
“I’ve celebrated life’s big and small milestones with my crews,” she explained. “First real love. Marriage. Babies. Turning 21. Turning 30. Turning 40. The crews I’ve worked with all these many many years have been just as instrumental in making me who I am as anything else lasting and important in my life. They have been family in that way and I have always and will always continue to support and stand by them.”
