Actress Michelle Pfeiffer has spoken about what it's like to be a mature actress in Hollywood now. She says there are many more "interesting roles" than there were a few decades ago.

The 63-year-old actress said: "Something is changing, there are more opportunities for actresses of my age and for women above 30: maybe not really sexy or leading roles, but interesting."

Her latest work includes the comedy-drama "French Exit" where she had to smoke non-nicotine or tar cigarettes to portray her character "Frances Price". She had quit the habit in 1992.

"I quit smoking years ago, yet it's always such a joy to pick up again. I have always liked it but the cigarettes I use do not contain nicotine or tar, and are not addictive. Finished the movie, finished the party!" Pfeiffer told an Italian publication IO Donna, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
