Recently, Helen Hunt has been acting as a journalist in BBC’s World on Fire and has a recurring role in Blindspotting. She’s also shown her directing skills in TV shows like Californication, House of Lies, and This is Us.

In 2021, she talked about working on a new version of Twister with a diverse group of storm chasers from historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs). Sadly, the idea was turned down.

“I tried hard to make it happen,” Hunt said in 2021. “I wanted to direct it… We struggled to even get a meeting, even though it was all about diversity in June 2020. It would have been amazing.”

Universal Pictures is making a new Twister movie called Twisters, but Helen Hunt won’t be involved. It’s coming out in July 2024.

Throughout her career, Hunt has won many awards and nominations. She’s been an important part of Hollywood with her great acting and timeless beauty.

Helen Hunt, one of the most famous faces in Hollywood, has been in the spotlight recently.

With a career of over four decades, it’s natural that her appearance has changed over time. But being a celebrity, she faces criticism from the public about how she looks.

Rumors about her having plastic surgery started after a car accident in 2019. Her SUV was hit by another car, causing it to roll over. She was briefly in the hospital but recovered quickly. Within a week, she was back to work filming the limited series reboot of Mad About You.

Talking to People magazine about returning to her role, Hunt said, “It was a project filled with love. We enjoyed it. It’s nice to work on something that’s all about love. We’ll be older though — I hope people are ready for that. I’m not ready!”

Shortly after this, Radar Online published an article suggesting Hunt had too much plastic surgery. They described her as “ageless” but also said her face looked “mannequin-like” and “less expressive than usual.”

However, fans defended her. One fan wrote, “I’m not an expert on spotting plastic surgery, but to me, Helen Hunt today still looks like the Helen Hunt from Mad About You, just older. That’s what happens over three decades — people get older.” Another fan said, “We’re so used to seeing women who have had their lips and eyes done that a woman who is aging naturally looks strange to us.”

Helen Hunt hasn’t commented on rumors that she’s had cosmetic procedures to smooth out wrinkles on her face. Some think her flawless look might just be thanks to skilled makeup artists who can work magic with their brushes.

 

Many Hollywood stars use secrets to stay youthful. They combine healthy eating, exercise, and expensive spa treatments that don’t involve surgery.

Hunt stays active and proudly shows her fit body. In an interview, she said, “I generally stay active. I never go to a gym or diet. Dieting used to make me unhappy after the 1980s. But I like walking, running, and surfing when I can. I also enjoy yoga when I have time.”

In a 2019 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Helen Hunt talked about how she has faced being treated like an object in her career. She also talked about wanting to make Hollywood more fair for everyone.

She said to the Huffington Post in 2015, “What are the great movies being made now where younger women are the main character? You know what I mean? The whole thing — there’s no equal rights amendment. We’re in trouble.”

Over the years, Hunt has worked on many projects to support women’s rights and help them feel empowered. She often speaks out against the way women are treated like objects.

“I see billboards where women are hardly wearing anything, just to sell a watch or something,” Hunt said. “I’m really tired of it, to be honest.”

 

Facing judgements from the public can’t be easy, especially for celebrities who are out there doing their jobs, which is entertaining us.

Helen Hunt is phenomenal and of course she’s changed in the many decades that we’ve seen her. We think she looks beautiful!
