Whatever happened to Mara Wilson?

[Booldawg]

She was the child star in many films including Matilda, Mrs Doubtfire and a few others.

According to her IMDB entry she's done nothing since 2000.

wiki reckons
"She is a 2009 graduate of New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. In an interview she stated that she does not want to be a celebrity,[2] although she did add that she was considering doing a small film, just not mainstream films."

There isn't much information about her but the above links may help.

Google search engine brings her up, she's gone onto other things and an interview in 2009 suggests acting is not high priority. But you indirectly raise a related point. Whilst it may not be relevant for Myra - she's still not agewise out of the frame - older female actors (actresses) in particular seemed to have disappeared from the current role cast in favour of the 20 year old to 40 year old more fashion type photogenic material. Think of trying to find out what's become of the female British tv stars of the 1960s or 1970s, for example. Names that have disappeared are Isobel Black and Suzanne Neve, both differently cast but very good actresses. The latter two must be coming up to their seventies, but their roles seemed to have petered out when they were about 40yrs old. The same couldn't be said of male actors. And it's not as if the population dies at 40yrs to 50yrs, is it? So what fictional world are these films representing when they're trying to emulate fact?
