Michelle Pfeiffer is set to prioritize her role as a grandmother, announcing plans to take most of 2026 off.

Pfeiffer expressed immense joy and fulfillment in this new chapter, calling the experience "heaven."
Pfeiffer, who also has a son John Henry Kelley II with husband David E. Kelley, adopted Claudia Rose before her marriage. She recently shared that becoming a grandmother has been a profound experience, leading her to re-evaluate her work commitments and the way she spends her time, emphasizing a desire for meaningful engagement.
This personal shift comes as Pfeiffer stars in the new holiday film "Oh. What. Fun.," alongside Felicity Jones. The movie, set to release on December 3, 2025, is described as a tribute to mothers and holiday hosts. Pfeiffer noted that the film resonated with her, celebrating the often-unacknowledged efforts of mothers during the holiday season.
