American movie star Demi Moore said the vulnerability required for her role in the body horror film The Substance, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on May 19, was both demanding and exciting.
Moore stars as Elisabeth, an ageing TV fitness instructor a la actress Jane Fonda, who signs up for a mysterious medical regimen called The Substance that promises to create the perfect version of herself – played by American actress Margaret Qualley of the comedy road film Drive-Away Dolls (2024).
