Amanda Seyfried: 'I have nothing to prove to Hollywood anymore'

Amanda Seyfried states that she no longer feels the need to prove anything to Hollywood, as she is going through a demanding period in her career. With two new films, 'The Housemaid' and 'The Testament of Ann Lee', the actress refers to the pressure of the entertainment industry and her personal evolution.

In an interview with PORTER, Seyfried spoke about the milestone of forty years, stating that she is 'embracing herself in this new decade'. At the same time, she stressed that she no longer feels the pressure to prove anything to her colleagues or the industry in general.

In the film 'The Housemaid', Seyfried plays Nina Winchester, a wealthy woman who loses control. The actress mentions that this role gave her the opportunity to explore her anger in a way she had never done before.

Seyfried, along with her husband, Thomas Sadoski, and their children, live in Stone Ridge, New York, away from the ostentatious life of California. The actress also referred to her daughter's reaction to her fame, saying that she is more driven by curiosity and is protective of her.
