Kim Kardashian recently opened up about her future plans, revealing a surprising perspective on her career and appearance. In a candid moment on the latest episode of “The Kardashians,” Kim shared her thoughts with her close friends over dinner. The reality star and fashion icon disclosed that she is actively pursuing an acting career, following her role as Siobhan Corbyn in “American Horror Story: Delicate.”
Kim has teamed up with Paula Pell, known for her work on “Saturday Night Live” and “Girls5eva,” to pitch a new comedy film to Netflix. The project, titled “The Fifth Wheel,” is described as a full comedy, reminiscent of popular films like “The Hangover” and “Bridesmaids.” The script, co-written by Pell and her wife Janine Brito, will see Kim co-producing the film.
During the dinner, Kim’s friends were taken aback by the news, expressing their surprise that they hadn’t heard about this significant development sooner. Kim admitted that she hadn’t anticipated this career path and was initially hesitant. “I wasn’t planning on this career, and I was like, ‘OK, I’m not gonna get ahead of myself here,'” she confessed. Despite her nerves, Kim is determined to challenge herself with this new venture.
Kim’s friends were supportive, even suggesting she take on more demanding roles, such as a female 007. Kim humorously responded, “I feel like you need less Botox for more emotion, and I do not have that. How am I gonna be scared? How am I gonna cry?” Despite her self-deprecating humor, Kim is committed to her acting journey, which aligns with her 10-year career plan.
“I can do a movie a year,” Kim explained with a laugh. “I’ve got about 10 years where I still look good, so that’s all I’ve got in me, and then I’ll take some time off.” This statement highlights Kim’s awareness of the industry’s emphasis on appearance and her own self-imposed timeline.
Kim’s foray into acting has not been without its critics. Her inclusion in Variety’s “Actors on Actors” video series, where she sat down with Chloë Sevigny to discuss her role in “AHS: Delicate,” sparked mixed reactions. Some viewers perceived tension between the two, questioning Kim’s place in the series. However, Variety’s co-Editor-in-Chief Ramin Setoodeh defended Kim, stating that Chloë was genuinely excited to talk to her.
Chloë Sevigny also appeared to support Kim, posting on Instagram, “Our chosen career of actor has many forms. Some are rewarded early. Some of us are the journeymen, some have a quieter route, and some a much louder one. And I am always excited to celebrate every kind of actor.”
Kim’s journey into acting is a testament to her willingness to step out of her comfort zone and embrace new challenges. As she navigates this new path, she remains focused on her 10-year plan, determined to make the most of the time she believes she has left to “look good.” This candid revelation offers a glimpse into Kim’s mindset and her approach to balancing career ambitions with personal perceptions of beauty and aging.
