Pamela Anderson Redefines Herself in 'The Last Showgirl,' Reflects on Past Challenges

Pamela Anderson, 57, is embracing a new chapter in her career with the film 'The Last Showgirl,' set to release on March 12, 2025. The film, directed by Gia Coppola, casts Anderson as a showgirl in a closing Las Vegas cabaret, mirroring her own experiences with the entertainment industry's fleeting attention. Anderson, who rose to fame with Playboy and 'Baywatch,' acknowledges past struggles with image and exploitation, including the unauthorized series 'Pam & Tommy.' She now feels empowered to control her narrative, following her personal documentary, 'Pamela, a love story.' Returning to her native Vancouver Island, Anderson initially believed her acting career was over. However, 'The Last Showgirl' offers her a chance to be seen as a serious actress, portraying a flawed character seeking redemption. She appreciates the film's sensitive portrayal of a woman's journey, free from exploitation.
