No, but the industry in which she works gives people, especially women, less work if they'll aren't at peak attractiveness. Less work means less money. I don't really know her acting beyond her Underworld movies, but it's less than compared to Maggie Smith, Kathy Bates, Emma Thompson, and Helen Mirren. Those ladies have lasted because of their fantastic acting, despite letting their age show.
I'm not saying I agree with the industry's choice. I actually think naturally aging women are really beautiful and hate the fake looks. I'm just saying if she wants to be competitive in her industry, she may feel she needs to do it. Also, she might like looking young. I try not to judge people for it, it's just not my preference.
