Geena Davis Then
In the 1980s, Geena Davis was a trendy commodity. When Beetlejuice and then Thelma and Louise launched her to box-office superstardom, it looked that she could do no wrong. In the 1990s, you couldn’t turn around in a supermarket without seeing Davis and her ex-husband Jeff Goldblum on the cover of a magazine. The Fly, their reboot of the horror classic, is revolting. The only real blemish on the ointment was Renny Harlin’s flop Cutthroat Island, guided by her now ex-husband. They created the film precisely to help Geena establish her career. It turned out to be a failure, and she was almost sunk as a result.
Geena Davis Now
Geena is still looking great these days, particularly considering she’s in her sixties! The popular actress is seen here promoting the Women’s Sports Foundation’s fight for gender empowerment in sports. Though she always does some performing, Geena now devotes the majority of her time to advocacy. She’s even established her center to study gender stereotypes in the media. She was one of 300 candidates for a place on the 1999 women’s Olympic archery squad. When Disney sells the Hunger Games franchise, she might portray an older Katniss Everdeen.
