Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend · Jodie Foster · 19 Jan 2026 podcast

Because me is very interesting.

And and you, you know, especially as a woman, you know, there are things that you want to achieve at age.

you know, I wanted to make films where I was playing these central characters that were in charge of their own lives and that they weren't just adjuncts to the men, that they were fully fleshed, complicated human beings.

Yeah, yeah.

But then you reach a certain point where you get older and you're like, wow, I'm just so bored with myself.

I can't stand it.

And you really start... Haven't hit that yet.

You start realizing all the voices you left behind that you weren't listening to.

And they're all out there.

And you think, oh, my God, I can't believe I wasn't listening.

I wasn't paying any attention.

And then the real joy comes when you start saying like, oh, now that I have wisdom and I'm older.

How can I serve your story?

So you want to tell this story that nobody's ever heard before about a bunch of people that nobody's ever heard how this happened.

How can I use all of this old patriarchy that I have to serve that purpose to support you?

And that's so much more fun than anything else.

And the pressure's off of you.

Yeah, that's true.

It really, really tread over stuff that hadn't been thought about before.

And mostly it was just like the hero's journey was reserved for men.
