She was nominated for (and quite good, I thought) in Vice, but The Woman in the Window appears to be misbegotten, and Hillbilly Elegy is being mostly panned. Nothing on the horizon for her seems like a knockout as far as I can tell. Has the rug been pulled out from under her with no O. Russell or McKay films keeping her career steady and no big-time directors stepping in to fill the gap?

She's 46 .......bad things happen to females in American film not named Streep (and a very few others) at this age....she's also one of many actors of the modern era whose Oscar stats get confused with their acting stats....(she can act - I like her usually - but compare her with most (or all?) actresses with 6 nods ......nah) as the Oscars have devalued what stars have to do to get a nod and win an Oscar has devalued too. This is why I always say Oscar nods now are somewhat inflated for a lot of people male and female (so are home run stats  ).....but anyway, she gave one of her better performances in Sharp Objects on HBO....she might want to look there when films look lean.... |

If Amy Adams of all actresses is in a slump, the rest of the actresses must be in a famine.

As you said she just got nominated for Vice. A few flops does not mean her career is ending. I expect her to stay strong into her 50's like Streep and Blanchett. She still looks really good and the public likes her.

Way way too soon to say. It wasn't that long ago that she got nominated for her sixth Oscar, and actresses of her ilk go through "slumps", especially when they reach a certain age. She just needs to work with a strong director collaborator again, and everything should be fine.

It feels like that but I think she will be fine. She is a big name actress and it's just a matter of one or two good projects.
