Even though Jennette McCurdy previously stated she was done with the world of acting, the former iCarly star revealed that writing her memoir has opened her mind to the possibility of returning. She stepped away in 2018, but while attending the Time100 Next Gala on Oct. 25, she shared that writing her best-selling memoir, I'm Glad My Mom Died, helped her feel more "receptive about the idea of stepping in front of the cameras again."

While cutting an elegant figure on the red carpet, the actress and best selling author revealed that "only through writing the book" did she begin to feel like the possibility of "a way of exploring acting".

"Maybe if I write something for myself. I think that'd really be maybe one of the only ways I could kind of try exploring it again."

The actress also joked that the other way to get her to grace the screen again is to work with Molly Shannon, who wrote herTIME100 Next list entry.
