NEWNow you can listen to Fox News articles!

Hollywood legend Michelle Pfeiffer is proving that aging gracefully and staying radiant isn't about complicated routines, but rather a simple daily habit she refuses to skip.

The Oscar-nominated actress, 67, revealed her beauty secret in an interview with Fox News Digital for her new Paramount+ series, “The Madison,” explaining that the true formula is a mix of good genetics, healthy habits and happiness.

“Oh, gosh,” Pfeiffer laughed when asked about her wellness regimen. “I have very good genetics. My mother, my sisters… look, I take care of myself. I eat very well. I quit smoking early enough.”

“And I exercise. Exercise is really important and I'm happy; I think that shows…health.”

Pfeiffer's co-star Kurt Russell, 74, laughed and chimed in: “It can be done, I live with Goldie Hawn, I can promise you it can be done.”

When Fox News Digital asked Pfeiffer about her non-negotiable beauty rule, she said it's simply about maintaining momentum, a small but powerful habit that fuels her glow.

“I think exercise, honestly, is the best for your skin. It's best for the brain, it's the best for everything,” she said.

“If you could do just one thing that would make you look better: exercise. Sweat… Sanjay Gupta says everyone should sweat a little bit every day. I sweat a lot… It's really good for your head.”

For Pfeiffer, the series also marked a long-awaited on-screen reunion with Russell.

“Well, because I always want to be with Kurt,” he joked when asked why this project seemed like the right time to work together again.

“I had a great time working with him on 'Tequila Sunrise' and honestly, we didn't have many scenes together. I would have liked more because I really enjoyed working with him. And there just wasn't an opportunity until now.”

The couple's reunion didn't go unnoticed by their other co-stars, who admitted that sharing scenes with two Hollywood legends was a pinch-me moment.

“We're just trying to find our place. It's very surreal working with Michelle and Kurt,” said Elle Chapman. “I mean, they're both icons, but they're both down to earth and incredible people, very welcoming. But it's hard to get used to.”

“I'm still not used to it. They're the best. I mean, they're the best of the best,” Adams said. “These are, yes, like you said, icons, but they're also completely uninterested in you approaching them with that attitude. They're very committed to their craft. They love acting, they love the acting community.”

“They want to run lines, and that's special,” Amiah Miller added.

Cast members said watching Pfeiffer and Russell work offered them a master class in acting.

“What brings them together is just the sense of ease,” Adams explained. “There's no pressure. There's no like, 'I have to do this… I'm not going to do a lot of big performances.' I'm kind of present; I'm in the moment. I'm reacting to the people around me. And it's amazing how simple they make it look, like any real craftsman.”
