Away from the screens since 2014, actress Eva Mendes, 48, said that she will return to acting, but will only accept roles that fit her requirements. “I have such a short list of what I’m going to do,” said Ryan Gosling’s wife, 41.
In an interview with The View, she stated that from now on “I’m not going to do violence, I don’t want to do sexuality; the list is short”. Her last acting job was almost eight years ago in “The Lost River”, a film directed and scripted by Gosling.
The artist even said that she hopes to accept a work that fits her criteria. “It has to be nice and clean,” she added. “Things like Disney does,” suggested Whoopi Goldberg, the show’s co-host. “Disney! Perfect,” replied Mendes.
In October 2020, the actress even said that staying away from the productions was her choice, to be able to dedicate herself to her daughters, Esmeralda, 6, and Amada, 4. At the time, she said that “starting to feel the ambition come back”. .
“I think as far as my ambition goes, it hasn’t gone away, it’s just passed on to the kids,” she says. “I applaud and admire women who can do it all, but I’m not one of them. And luckily, I have a choice not to work and I realize how lucky I am that it’s a choice.”
Famous for films like “Hitch” (2005) and “Fast & Furious 2” (2003), Eva began her career with appearances in music videos for the Pet Shop Boys and Aerosmith, and realized early on that Hollywood had a lot to learn about diversity.
