Demi Moore, a Primetime Emmy-nominated actress who became popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s, recently shared her thoughts on Ghost.
Moore appeared on Sean Evans’ Hot Ones interview series’ latest episode, where she talked about how taking risks is important for the projects she chooses, referring to her new body horror film The Substance and her famous movie Ghost.
Responding to Evan’s question about her comment on The Substance script, the 62-year-old actress said, “It really means that it was holding something that was worth the risk.”
“And I felt that way also about Ghost because it had so many different genres mixed together that, truly, I thought, ‘This could either be amazing or a f***** disaster.’ Either way, it’s usually the kind of juice that says, ‘Step in. Take the risk. Roll the dice. Let’s see what happens,'” the Disclosure star added.
Notably, the risk paid off in both cases, as Ghost, released in 1990, became a surprise hit by winning an Oscar.
The supernatural romance thriller, starring Patrick Swayze, also earned half a billion at the box office, according to Deadline.
It is noteworthy to mention that now a remake of Ghost starring Channing Tatum is in the works with no announcement of release date yet, while The Substance premiered on September 20, 2024.
