‘Geena Davis is so hot,’ wrote someone else, while another fan added: ‘Geena has been in some of my favourite films, Beetlejuice is fantastic & a very different role for her in the brilliant Long Kiss Goodnight. She still looks great too.’
Interestingly, the actress spoke of seeing older women in movies, telling viewers: ‘My institute does all the research, and current studies show that 20% of characters in movies are 50 and over but 5% are female, so it’s such a small slice of the roles we get’.

‘I was used to living as somebody who says ‘’I don’t know if you agree with this or if this is a good idea’’ I was busy dying of politeness.
‘As soon as I met Susan, ”oh my God” this was a whole different world. And it wasn’t that anyone reacted differently to her .Everyone loved her and everything
‘I was like: ‘’Wow, you can actually be like that”’. She showed me what it’s like to live authentically and be in the moment.’

Elsewhere in the chat, the Beetlejuice star admitted of Thelma and Louise: ‘None of us had any idea at any of the reaction that it would get, we had a low budget.’

She recalled: ‘I happened to be seated next to George Clooney on a flight and he said “I hate that Brad Pitt, he got the part in Thelma and Louise over me”.’
