washed up? What are you talking about? She’s been the lead on two different, highly rated, shows for nearly a decade now. And that’s discounting her decades prior of accolades.
But here’s the real problem, you jump to call her “washed up”, she’s only 49. Is Brian Cranston washed up? Was Pachino? Calling a female actor “washed up” because she’s older with a long career just exudes and perpetuates the culture pushing out women as they age.
Just because YOU stopped paying attention to her doesn’t make her washed up. Sorry she’s not the bangable 20something year old “Legally Blonde” anymore. Say what you want about her hot take on AI, that’s fair, but don’t normalize your misogyny as part of it.
Ignoring everything else, “washed up” only means someone has lost their previous high status. It has nothing to do with age. You can be a washed up child actor.
I mean, you said yourself she’s working on TV. It’s definitely a step down from the height of her career, and it looks like I’ve never even heard of her most recent show. Pacino is definitely in washed up territory, I haven’t heard anything about him since Jack and Jill or maybe that weird de-aged Netflix movie. Cranston is different in that he’s primarily a TV actor whose work has only become more respected over his career, although apart from the Malcolm reboot I haven’t heard much from him, so perhaps he is in the process of becoming washed. It’s all a relative thing and I don’t think misogyny played as much of a role in this comment as you’re arguing.
EDIT: Reworded my last sentence because misogyny is definitely a huge problem in Hollywood, I just didn’t appreciate you jumping down comment OP’s throat.

The TV shows being a step down from movies opinion went away years ago with the growth of prestige television.
hilarious. JFC…The Morning Show?
She’s washed up and investing in AI, while simultaneously insulting women with real jobs by telling them their jobs are bullshit.
