Golden Globe winner Jodie Foster reveals secret to her happiness at 62

Jodie Foster has opened up about the most “contented moment” in her life.

During her appearance at the 2025 Golden Globes Awards, the actress and director talked about feeling more at peace than ever before.

Foster, who won Best Female Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series for her role in True Detective: Night Country, shared how she is at “golden age” after turning 60.

She said, “at least for women, I think something happens. There’s an organism that gets released into the bloodstream.”

“I’m not a doctor, so don’t follow me on that one, but it just feels like there’s a hormone that happens, or suddenly you go, ‘Oh, I don’t really care about things anymore. I’m not going to compete for myself,'” The Silence of the Lambs actress continued.

Foster went on to say, “I’m excited about what’s left of my life and who I’ve become that I can bring to the table. So for me, this is the most contented moment in my career, and I never would’ve known that. I just never would’ve known that. But something happened the day I turned 60.”

It is worth mentioning that Foster, famed for her iconic roles in the films is also a mother to two sons, Charlie, 26, and Christopher, 23, whom she shares with her ex-partner Cydney Bernard.
