The actor reinforcing her anti-airbrushing stance.
Kate Winslet has long been opposed to hiding or retouching what Hollywood deems physical “imperfections” onscreen, and her latest role in “Mare of Easttown” is no exception.published Monday, Winslet revealed that when the director of the hit HBO series told her he would cut “a bulgy bit of belly” in a sex scene, she responded, “Don’t you dare!”
The actor, 45, also said that she would not approve the show’s promotional poster until the airbrushing on her face had been removed. “They were like, ‘Kate, really, you can’t,’ and I’m like, ‘Guys, I know how many lines I have by the side of my eye, please put them all back,’” she said. She added that it was important to her to portray her character, detective Mare Sheehan, as relatable and authentic.
“Listen, I hope that in playing Mare as a middle-aged woman — I will be 46 in October — I guess that’s why people have connected with this character in the way that they have done because there are clearly no filters,” she said. “She’s a fully functioning, flawed woman with a body and a face that moves in a way that is synonymous with her age and her life and where she comes from. I think we’re starved of that a bit.
