It seems like ages since I last saw Michelle Pfeiffer, but she has been active the last few years. Michelle was in Avengers: Endgame, Murder on the Orient Express and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil. But still I feel like I don’t see her much these days and it is always a treat when I do. Michelle is in the new film French Exit, out February 12th. Michelle plays New York socialite, Frances Price, who must start over in Paris with her son after she loses her wealth when her husband dies. In a new interview with Extra, Michelle says the script for French Exit was very compelling and discusses her character, Frances, seeking a psychic for guidance. Michelle says that she has a had couple of readings from a psychic and that were mind-blowing. Below are a few excerpts from the interview:
First, she opened up about her Showtime’s series “The First Lady.” Rachel asked, “Is it nerve-wracking for you to play such an iconic legend?”
Michelle confessed, “It is, and you don’t really think about that until you commit.” Smiling, she added, “And now I am doing a deep dive into it and I take it seriously… It’s a real person who has family and who was an incredible part of our history.”
The three-time Oscar nominee could see another nomination with “French Exit.” Pfeiffer plays a fiery redhead and once-wealthy socialite who loses it all after her husband dies. She moves to Paris to start over with her son, played by Hedges. Michelle said the script was like nothing she had read before. “All of them are somewhat lonely and disconnected and need help finding each other, and I just thought it was so unusual.”
Azazel added, “I was struck by how… all these characters really moved by the beat of their own drum.”
Rachel asked, “We see you communicating with the other side… Have you ever gone to a medium before… or maybe a psychic or had a card reading?”
Michelle said, “I am not going to share, but it was kind of fascinating, I have to say. I’ve had a few readings that were kind of mind-blowing.”
Lucas, “I had a reading, too, that the second I stepped into it was like mind-blowing clear and it felt deeply true.”
“French Exit” opens February 12.
I had to watch this video several times to hear what Michelle was saying because I kept staring at the guy, Azazel Jacobs, with the huge afro. Like his hair was phenomenal and stole my attention. I need to know his secrets. I think it is so cool that Michelle has seen a psychic. As a tarot reader myself, I enjoy opening the other realms to my clients. As the reader, the experience can be just as exciting for us as it is for those receiving the reading. It is also very exciting to have someone like Michelle validate alternative spiritual practices. I also love that Lucas Hedges, who plays Michelle son Malcolm in the film, echoed her sentiments on getting a reading.
Michelle will always be the best Catwoman outside of Eartha Kitt and I will always be a fan. French Exit sounds like an intriguing movie and I look forward to watching it. I am also excited that Michelle will be returning to television by starring as Betty Ford in the Showtime series The First Lady. I hope that we get to see more of Michelle in the future. It feels like something is missing in Hollywood without her around. I would also like to add that Michelle looks damn good. I guess that’s what happens when you are unproblematic.
Here’s that interview!

Michelle is a great example of ”aging well”, no over the top surgery and still looking gorgeous! Also, I love tarot reading!!!
Indeed, she looks amazing!
@NORTHERNGIRL. She’s had work done, known fact. Twice. It’s excellent work. Her doctor is very very good. And is very selective who they’ll work on
I want to hear more about the psychics. What did they tell her that blew her mind?
She’s a treasure
Happy to see her looking so well. She could have easily Courtney Coxed her face. My cards helped me through this whole election fiasco but to be a fly on the wall for Pfeiffer’s reading!?!
She looks beautiful, always has. I miss her in films too, she was always enjoyable.
I generally believe most psychics are scammers or just good at reading people, but there was one years ago who was so spot on, and said very random stuff that years later I remembered and realized did happen.
She aged really well, I had a physic reading and it scared me enough not to go back.
Haha, interesting, I like Michelle. I think clairvoyance is real and that some people are truly gifted with a greater intuition/ability to interpret things. My aunt is one of them… She read my cards years ago and predicted things with such accuracy, I never asked her to reread them, lol. Was a little too on the nose and about things that were difficult to predict. But most psychics are just in it for the money and are shysters who are better at reading people and context clues than the actual future.
I’ve only ever had one reading and I’d never do it again because it’s kind of pointless for me, as I think you can change anything and make your own destiny. However, I firmly believe there are people who can just see things. The psychic I saw was covered in the local media here and she knew stuff about me, my family, and so on. She predicted something and I made a decision and it didn’t turn out as she predicted – because, you know, free will. I’ve followed her on social media and I get the impression she, like many psychics, don’t actually like the type of work they’re asked to do. It’s all that grasping stuff, like will I get rich or meet the right person. Plus reliance = potential litigation. This was way back; now she does energy readings rather than psychic readings and encourages focusing on generating positive energy.
