Squibb, 95, discusses the significance of this role, her working relationship with director Scarlett Johansson, and her plans for future projects.

June Squibb attends The Hollywood Reporter's Women In Entertainment breakfast presented by Lifetime at the Beverly Hills Hotel on Dec. 4, 2024.“People have really made a big deal about the fact that it was my first leading role,” says the veteran actress, who turned 95 in November, of Josh Margolin’s senior citizen dramedy. “Everybody has laughingly said it over and over.
