After three years on the soap opera General Hospital, Moore advanced into lightweight ingenue movie turns and then into more serious dramatic roles. Ghost (1990) made her a major star. A fitness buff with no fear of self-promotion, Moore posed nude for the cover of Vanity Fair magazine while eight months pregnant in 1991. Her $12 million payday for the 1996 movie Striptease made her, for a time, Hollywood's highest-paid actress, but after starring in the big-budget drama G. I. Jane (1997, directed by Ridley Scott) she appeared in fewer and smaller films. In 2003 she returned to the screen as the villain in Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (starring Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu). Her other films include A Few Good Men (1992, with Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson), Indecent Proposal (1993, with Robert Redford), The Scarlet Letter (1995, as Hester Prynne) and The Juror (1996, with Alec Baldwin).
