Over the years, the film industry has produced countless films of diverse genres. However, actress Sarah Jessica Parker once explained that the industry lacks adult films. By adult films, the actress meant movies that are specifically made for adults and not movies that are produced to please teenagers.
Sarah Jessica Parker has starred in a lot of hits throughout her career and today she has established herself as a well-known actress in the industry. However, she once explained that she prioritized acting skills over glamour. She preferred to do meaningful projects, even if they are not popular.
Sarah Jessica Parker once revealed she doesn’t prefer being a big movie star
Actress Sarah Jessica Parker once revealed in an interview with Charlie Rose that she prefers to work on projects that are meaningful rather than appearing in pointless movies for stardom. She said,
“I think my motivation is to do good work that matters more to me at the end of the day than anything, of course. But I think I’ve been working for so many years that I don’t see myself having that accelerated, meteoric career, that happens so overnight and crazy. I don’t see that people would respond to me that way. I don’t feel myself seeking that.”
Although the actress has a remarkable career, she still feels like she is not that famous and still in the process of becoming a famous movie star.
The actress once said that the film industry lacks adult films
Back in 2006, Sarah Jessica Parker bashed Hollywood for making fewer adult films and more films for teenagers. The actress accused the system of producing movies for teenagers “wanting to see movies for knuckleheads.” She said,
“I remember when adults went to movies. Until about five years ago there were always adult films and they made their money back. It wasn’t such a risk. So I feel I have to compete against the audience’s tastes.”
The actress mainly pointed out the sudden change in Hollywood. She wasn’t wrong as Hollywood continued to produce films like these.
Sarah Jessica Parker began acting at the age of 11
The actress has been a part of the industry for almost four decades now.

Since then, the actress has starred in a lot of movies. She became a household name after she played the role of Carrie Bradshaw in the HBO television series Sex and the City (1998–2004).
