DEMI MOORE has proven herself to be one of the industry's most accomplished performers, lending her talents to an array of revered films and television both in front of and behind the camera. Moore recently finished production on Owen Harris’s BRAVE NEW WORLD, a TV adaptation based on Aldous Huxley's famous book set in a dystopian future. She can also be seen this month in Patrick Brice’s CORPORATE ANIMALS opposite Ed Helms, as well as Sony’s ROUGH NIGHT, starring Scarlett Johansson and Kate McKinnon, and Michael Mailer’s BLIND, with Alec Baldwin. Moore also adds author to her list of credits with her memoir “Inside Out”, released on September 24, 2019 as published by HarperCollins. In this emotionally charged memoir, she opens up about her career and personal life – laying bare her defining tumultuous relationship with her mother, her marriages, her struggles balancing stardom with motherhood, and her journey toward open-heartedness. “Inside Out” is a story of survival, success, and surrender – as well as resilience: a wrenchingly honest portrayal of one woman’s at once ordinary and iconic life. Moore is a co-founder of Thorn, a non-profit building technology to defend children from sexual abuse, exploitation and trafficking. Moore’s acting career took off in the late 1980’s when she starred in ST. ELMO’S FIRE. She then went on to star in such iconic films as A FEW GOOD MEN, GHOST, INDECENT PROPOSAL, DISCLOSURE, and G.I. JANE. On the small screen, she earned a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Performance by an Actress in a Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television for her role as a single woman seeking a back-alley abortion in the 1950s-set miniseries “If These Walls Could Talk”. The miniseries, which she also produced, received an Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Made for Television Movie. Moore has starred in such films as CHARLIE’S ANGELS: FULL THROTTLE, BOBBY, FLAWLESS HAPPY TEARS, and THE JONESES. She followed those with the 2011 financial thriller, MARGIN CALL, which received the Robert Altman Independent Spirit Award for Best Ensemble Cast, in which she gave what New York Magazine called “the performance of her life,” as well as the drama ANOTHER HAPPY DAY opposite Ellen Barkin. In 2012, Moore directed the acclaimed Lifetime original movie FIVE, an anthology of five short films exploring the impact of breast cancer on people’s lives. The film landed her a Director’s Guild Nomination. Moore also adds author to her list of credits with her memoir “Inside Out”, released on September 24, 2019 as published by HarperCollins.
