As for Ellen’s career, in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she said she was going to take it easy and see how things progressed. “I have some ideas, but my agent is just like, ‘Why don’t you just sit still for a minute. You probably don’t even know how exhausted you are and what it’s going to be like to sit still,’” she shared. Ellen also said that while she was not interested in returning to sit-coms, she was interested in appearing in movies. “If there were a great role, I’d be able to do that, which I’m not able to do now,” she said. Lastly, she discussed immersing herself more fully into her activism, something that remains a priority for her and that she’ll likely have more time for in the near future.
