"I love making independent movies, and that's pretty much what I'm going to be doing for the rest of my years"
About this Quote
The subtext is partly about authorship. Models and action stars are routinely treated as surfaces - images to be lit, branded, and moved through prebuilt narratives. Independent movies offer a counter-contract: fewer middlemen, more say in tone, collaborators, and the kind of risk that makes an audience feel like they're watching a person, not a product. There's also a practical reading. Indiework can be steadier and more self-directed across decades than the boom-and-bust of blockbuster casting, especially for women navigating an industry that tightens its definition of "bankable" with age.
Contextually, Jovovich's career has always straddled commerce and experimentation: high-profile genre franchises on one side, art-house and offbeat projects on the other. The quote isn't anti-Hollywood; it's a boundary. She’s staking out a future where the work stays weird enough to matter, even if the spotlight dims.
