The corporate boardroom and political thriller have become hunting grounds for older actresses. Robin Wright in House of Cards (as Claire Underwood) and Sigourney Weaver in Political Animals presented women whose ambition did not cool with age. Julianna Margulies in The Good Wife showed that a woman starting over at 40 could be the most dangerous chess player in the room. These roles offer a counter-narrative to the "crone" myth—instead, they present the "Queen" archetype.
