'80s star Kelly Le Brock talks new film 'Tomorrow's Today,' why she left Hollywood for 'the wilderness'


"It was a relief for Le Brock, who first began modeling in her teens and later skyrocketed to fame with films like 1984’s "The Woman in Red," 1985’s "Weird Science" and 1990’s "Hard to Kill."

But occasionally, Le Brock gets "the itch" to act again. And when the script for "Tomorrow’s Today" came along, she quickly said yes. The film, which was previously titled "Charlie Boy," drew world attention when Sean Young was fired from the set. In 2018, the "Blade Runner" star was accused of allegedly stealing laptops from a production office."


In the comedy, Le Brock plays a grieving mother and ex-wife of a former gangster who is attempting to right the wrongs of his life.

The 61-year spoke to Fox News about "Tomorrow’s Today," leaving Hollywood and what life is really like for her these days.

Fox News: What was it about the role of Donna in "Tomorrow’s Today" that drew you in as an actress?

Kelly Le Brock: I’m a professional ex-wife *laughs*. [Director] Timothy [Hines] is very persistent and he assured me that he would take very good care of me and make me look great. But I also think he put together a wonderful little film for little money. I read the script and it had potential. It had heart and Timothy was working on it constantly. And in the end, it’s a nice little story to tell… [Co-star] Greg [Kritikos] is such a doll. He’s quite the character. And the rest of the cast was warm and wonderful. It was a good experience for me.

Fox News: What was it like for you to play someone like Donna?

Le Brock: I have three wonderful children and I’ve had experiences where I’ve been faced with possible and potential tragedies with all three of them. And you know, I’ve done a lot of hospices in my life and they worked with a lot of children with cancer. Those experiences have touched my heart deeply. So I was able to draw from those personal experiences. I wanted to show how grief can sometimes be subtle and quiet. It never leaves you, even when you try to be private about it.
