As an example, the mind-blowing event, in which her role was rejected because she was too old, while Cafmeyer is exactly the same age as the character in respect of which they are too old.

“most recently, last week, to be more precise, I’m in a role, be denied that, for me, it was written,” says Maaike Cafmeyer in By Vlaeminck. “It was going to be a woman of 45, but in the end I declined because I was too old for a woman from 45 to play. I’m 45.”

You’re not a grandma, but you’re no longer sexually attractive to be found. You can be an intellectual, so little memory. You can have a bag of botox ® in syringes, but then I am a ‘45, with a bag of botox’! And I don’t want to”, she laughs. “But there is still a great way to go, and I think it’s perfectly fine to be thinking about it.”
