Jennette McCurdy says she might return to acting under THIS condition

Jennette McCurdy is rethinking her decision to quit acting.

Speaking to E! News at the Time100 Next Gala, the Disney alum revealed that writing her memoir I’m Glad My Mom Died helped her feel more receptive to the idea of returning to acting.

"I do feel like only through writing the book have I gotten to a place where I think there might be a way of exploring acting that doesn't carry that baggage that I carried with me for so long," she shared.

The 30-year-old multi-hyphenate star retired from the profession in 2018.

While the actress did not elaborate on her reason at the time, she cited her abusive mother and an upsetting experience with an unnamed Sam & Cat creator as the driving force behind her decision in her 2022 memoir.

She noted to the outlet that she would “try exploring [acting] again” if she wrote something for herself.

McCurdy had previously that she “initially didn’t want to do [acting],” but had to because of being the only financial aide in the family.

McCurdy also quipped at the event that the other way to get her to grace the screen again is to work with Molly Shannon, who wrote her TIME100 Next list entry.
