For some values of "random", "celebrity" and "news". First, from Variety, Winona Ryder Gets Frustrated by Her Younger Co-Stars Who ‘Are Not Interested in Movies’: ‘The First Thing They Say’ Is ‘How Long Is It?’

Winona Ryder is a cinephile and really wants her younger co-stars to be, too. In recent interviews while promoting her role in Tim Burton’s upcoming sequel “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,” the Oscar-nominated actor lamented over how some of the young actors she’s worked with in recent years just aren’t interested in watching movies. Be it working with the “Stranger Things” kids or Jenna Ortega on the “Beetlejuice” sequel, Ryder told Esquire she is very much aware that “I’ve gone from being the youngest person on set to being the oldest.”

As the Los Angeles Times noted in a recent profile: “Ryder appreciates getting to interact with the up-and-coming generation of film lovers who remind her of herself, excitedly telling me how her ‘Stranger Things’ co-star Finn Wolfhard is obsessed with Elliott Gould. Still, she gets frustrated when there is a lack of curiosity among her more junior colleagues.”

“I don’t mean to sound so hopeless,” she added to the magazine. “There are a few that are just not interested in movies. Like, the first thing they say is, ‘How long is it?’”
