In September 2025, legendary actress Michelle Pfeiffer, 67, announced that she has taken on a new role: grandmother. Pfeiffer, known for her acclaimed performances in films like What Lies Beneath, revealed this happy news on the "SmartLess" podcast.
The actress explained that she has been scaling back her acting work in recent times to devote more time to her new grandparent responsibilities. Pfeiffer, who shares two adult children with her husband, David E. Kelley, described becoming a grandmother as "heaven" and "ridiculous." She admitted that if she had known about this joyous life event earlier, she would have taken on fewer acting projects.
Despite her reduced workload, Pfeiffer emphasized that she continues to deeply enjoy her craft. The actress said she now feels more relaxed and present in her work, as she is no longer consumed by the "angst" of the acting process. Pfeiffer's newfound appreciation for her profession has made her an even better performer.
As Pfeiffer embraces this new chapter of her life, she looks forward to the future with excitement. In 2024, she and her husband broke their 31-year pact to not work together, with Pfeiffer set to star in the AppleTV+ series Margo's Got Money Troubles alongside Nicole Kidman and Elle Fanning. With her family and career both thriving, the legendary actress is poised for continued success.
