In an interview with the Guardian, Foster said she had sometimes found the attitudes to work she had encountered difficult to understand.

"They're like, 'Nah, I'm not feeling it today, I'm gonna come in at 10.30am.'"

But she did praise one Gen Z star, Bella Ramsey, calling the 20-year-old an example of an actor emerging in a new "vector of authenticity".

Foster, who was a child star herself before going on to a glittering screen career, said she felt compelled to help young actors find their path "because it was hard growing up".
