39-year-old actress called out ageist stereotypes in the entertainment industry and shared how her racy mystery thriller, \u201cThe Hunting Wives,\u201d is pushing back.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHollywood wants to kind of disregard women after the age of 32 for sex scenes, specifically nudity and things that are sort of like women coming into their own sexual, like, prowess,\u201d the \u201cPitch Perfect\u201d alum said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think that this was just like, \u2018No, we\u2019re going to still have this be very prevalent in a woman\u2019s life, even after she\u2019s of a Hollywood age,&#8217;\u201d Snow added.<\/p>\n<p>In \u201cThe Hunting Wives,\u201d Snow plays Sophie, who moves with her husband from Chicago to a small town in Texas and finds herself drawn to the enigmatic socialite Margo, played by\u00a0Malin Akerman, and her glamorous circle of elite women known as the Hunting Wives.<\/p>\n<p>After her friendship with Margo quickly turns sexual, Sophie is pulled into a spiral of obsession, betrayal and murder.<\/p>\n<p>During her podcast appearance, Snow also shed some light on how she and Akerman, 47, approached their intimate scenes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do think from the very beginning, there was a very clear understanding of what we were making in terms of the women that were on the show, what kind of women we were going to be \u2014 that were not 20 years old and were having these\u00a0sex scenes,\u201d she explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re in our late 30s, 40s, and we\u2019re going to be powerful, and this is for the woman gaze, and we\u2019re going to go for it,\u201d Snow continued. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><button class=\"button button--modal-trigger\" aria-label=\"Open the image in a
