A renowned actor since her on-screen debut in the 1980s, silver-haired superstar Andie MacDowell is now promoting gray pride. She was previously recognized for her unusual curling brown locks.
MacDowell, who is aging gracefully, admitted that she enjoys “comparing herself to George Clooney, because why not?”
After that, she starred in Steven Soderbergh’s first feature film, Sex, Lies & Videotape (1989), for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe for the first time.
Her commercial success began with her leading part with Bill Murray in the influential 1983 film Groundhog Day, which went on to influence popular culture decades later. Her fame grew even more after her performance in the Hugh Grant comedy Four Weddings and a Funeral (1984).
The Green Card actor flaunted her natural beauty while attending the 76th Cannes film festival. She wore a cozy white striped minidress, dark shades, and platform shoes in tones of brown and black.
Prior to Covid, MacDowell remarked that she welcomed the arrival of her gray hair. In an interview with Vogue, she stated, “My hair started growing at the very beginning of quarantine and every time my kids would see me, they kept telling me I looked badass with my gray hair.” You could only see the salt and pepper when I pulled it up in a bun, which is exactly how I am—dark and silver. Why not? I enjoy drawing comparisons between myself and George Clooney. I’ve been stating for a while now that I felt it was time for me to go through that change because it fit my personality and who I am.
Her acting career likewise has no end in sight.
Together with her 28-year-old daughter Margaret Qualley, whom she has with her ex-husband Paul Qualley, MacDowell starred in the Netflix drama series Main in 2021. Son Justin and daughter Rainey are MacDowell and Qualley’s other children; they were married in 1986 and divorced in 1999.
Hallie, the child actor who starred in several of her parents’ movies, including Father of the Bride and What Women Want, is the daughter of Nancy Meyers (Something’s Gotta Give, It’s Complicated) and Charles Shyer (Baby Boom).
There are also Kaia Gerber, whose mother is Cindy Crawford and who is a well-known model who is dating Austin Butler, the star of the upcoming biopic Elvis (2022), and Maya Hawke, daughter of Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke, who stars in the hit Netflix series Stranger Things.
Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith’s daughter Dakota Johnson is well-known for the Fifty Shades franchise, while Colin, Tom Hank’s son, has starred in a number of films and television shows.
MacDowell expressed her hope that she will have further chances to act with her daughter in the interim.
“Every moment was precious to me,” she remarked. I was afraid that this might never happen again, so I truly wanted to do well because it meant everything to me.
