Susan Sarandon is most recognized for her work as an actor, but she is also
well-known for her outspoken advocacy and stance on social problems. Over
the course of her many years in the entertainment industry, she has been in
a wide range of movies and television series and received several honors and
distinctions. The celebrity has also had an influence on Broadway and
off-Broadway theater.
On October 4, 1946, in New York City, New York, Sarandon was born. She
developed a passion for performance while still in school and started
acting, dancing, and playing musical instruments. She had natural skill from
the beginning, and as she grew older, it just grew stronger.
When she earned a part in the drama movie "Joe" in 1970, the actress
finally started to establish herself in the performing world. She then had a
few television appearances before playing Janet Weiss in "The Rocky Horror
Picture Show," a musical comedy-horror movie.
She has appeared in a number of other well-known movies, such as "James and
the Giant Peach" and "The Witches of Eastwick." But "Thelma & Louise," a
1991 picture in which Sarandon co-starred with Geena Davis, remains one of
her best-known works.
Sarandon has experienced three highly known relationships, as well as one
marriage and one divorce. She also has three kids, the oldest of them was
born when she was 39 and the youngest when she was 45. With regard to
becoming a mother at this time, the actress has been transparent.
It's reasonable to assume that Sarandon will always be most known for her
role in the 1991 classic film "Thelma & Louise." Two buddies who go on a
road trip together and get more than they expected are the subject of the
film. In one of his earliest significant film appearances, Brad Pitt is a
member of the supporting ensemble.
The Hollywood Reporter questioned Sarandon about the experience of filming
the movie's famous driving scenes, and she said, "The desert setting made it
extremely enjoyable. What I discovered is that you perform at your best as
an actor when you're only attempting to drive a car, aren't paying attention
to anything, and are lining up the shots. By the time we were done with the
film, I was moving along rather quickly."
In the same interview, Sarandon talked about her hopes for the movie's
response. ""Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" did you see? Ridley (Scott)
is a fantastic filmmaker, and the writing is entertaining, so I thought this
was going to be a lot of fun cowboy (movie) with ladies and trucks "She
remembered. Young females rapidly looked up to Sarandon and Davis as role
models.
Since then, Sarandon has persisted in motivating women. She spoke in 2011
about her experience with endometriosis and how no woman should have to
forgo an opportunity because of the discomfort brought on by this ailment.
When all you are familiar with is pain, you may not realize that it is
abnormal, she claimed. "Even if we were brought up to believe otherwise,
suffering is not a woman's fate. Missing a period of your life due to
suffering is not acceptable.
In addition, Sarandon has been outspoken about wanting to start a family
around the age of 40. Eva Amurri, a lifestyle blogger and actress, was the
woman's first child, born in 1985. In 1989, Sarandon gave birth to her
second child, the writer and filmmaker Jack Henry Robbins, and in 1992, she
gave birth to Miles Robbins, a singer and actor.
Sarandon has no regrets about how or when she became a mother, according to
PEOPLE. The actress said, "I remember it was, 'Don't have the baby,' as like
it would ruin my career, and I was so old anyhow," when asked about the
worst piece of advice she had ever received.
I had my first kid at 39 and my third at 45, and with each one, (people
were) like, 'Are you crazy?' she said. Don’t!’”
In 2020, Sarandon gave some advise to soon-to-be mothers in an interview
with PEOPLE. No matter how involved or well-meaning your baby daddy or
spouse is in the beginning, it is up to you, she stated to each woman who
confides in her that she is considering having a child. "There's no getting
around it; that's just how it's designed."
It's a very crazy, sci-fi journey, so try to enjoy the birth and everything
else as much as you can, she said. Don't feel like you need to be
flawless.
At the age of 75, Sarandon is now a grandma as well as a mother. It's
obvious that the actress has cherished every step of her motherhood
experience, despite her claim that the later job is "so much simpler."
