In the new Entertainment Weekly, the Legally Blonde star is asked why she hasn't been in too many movies lately... and she blames the onslaught of giant robot and superhero films.

Says Witherspoon:

The movies that are being made feel different. There are a lot of really, really, really big movies about robots and things — and there's not a part for a 34-year-old woman in a robot movie. I've never done the giant robot movie. Never done the superhero movie. That doesn't interest me too much.
