Demi Moore plays a fading celebrity who will use any method science can offer to create a younger, better version of herself.
So … a documentary?
Margaret Qualley plays the younger, better version and looks more beautiful than we have ever seen her before.
The film has been heralded by many as a genre classic. It’s rated 85 at Metacritic, 90% at RT, 7.9 at IMDb
Some sample reviews from Cannes (I can’t say whether the theatrical version is identical to the version screened at Cannes):
It’s the casting of Moore, though, and her willingness to denude herself at 61 – emotionally, as well as physically – that gives The Substance a startling connection with its themes. Not for 30 years has she owned a film with anything like this certitude. Watching her confront the Demi Moore in the mirror, and do it so mercilessly, is extraordinary.
In its trashiness – and, yes, its refusal of serious substance – The Substance should really be put out on VHS cassettes and watched at home in homage to the great era of home entertainment pulp and video-store masterpieces of weirdness and crassness.
The BBC summed it up beautifully in two words:
Magnificently tasteless.

These Margareth Qualley breasts are obviously fake, as she herself has said in interviews about the film. But Demi Moore’s body and breasts look real… And Qualley’s butt is real too.
Well, Demi’s are sort of real, they haven’t been real since back in the About Last Night era.
I wish she had stuck with the real ones as she was such a natural beauty. Perhaps she felt inadequate standing topless next to Michelle Johnson in Blame It On Rio. In that scene, Demi seemed to have her hair partially covering he chest perhaps so we wouldn’t notice how small they were next to Michelle. Although she isn’t the young beauty she once was, I give Demi a lot of credit for going nude now.
Her ass stole the show so that’s nice to know. Why did they make her breasts fake? Did they think hers weren’t good enough? Not enough of a match for Demi? I think we could have overlooked that aspect. Since when is Hollywood so concerned about being realistic.
From what I understand, from the story of the film… Margareth would be a younger and more perfect version of Demi, so it makes sense that she would have big breasts like Demi.
A bit of irony here since Demi’s OG boobs, from early 80s skin mags, were in fact teeny tiny just like Qualley’s real ones
Not so much. Qualley’s breasts are even smaller than Demi’s original breasts. Maybe qualley has the breasts smallest in Hollywood
Demi’s were really small and its interesting to find out when a lot of those nude photoshoots were actually taken, since it was mentioned that Demi lied about being 18 to get some of those taken
Ehen they made Looper they had Joseph Levitt wear a fake nose and all kinds of makeup. Hollywood is always concerned with this stuff, I know women who got turned down for nudity for period movies because they had fake boobs where obviously in 1700 there was no silicone implants. Furiosa used digital effects to make the younger girls look more like Ana Joy. If you’re going from one actress to another like that you need to make them look as similar as possible.
Any link(s) to interview(s) where she talks about having fake breasts for her nude scenes? I was unable to locate any such interviews.
You don’t even need an interview, friend. Obviously Qualley’s breasts are fake in this film (CGI or prosthetic). Have you ever seen Qualley’s real breasts? Of course they are fake in this film. Now, if you still want an interview with her confirming this… She confirms this in an interview with Demi Moore for the Associated Press about the film
They said that some nudity was cgi
I don’t know specifically what sort of tricks were involved, but I do know that Margaret Qualley has done several nude scenes and her breasts have never looked like that.
She actually looks like this:
Yes, she used a large breast implant in this film, because of the character… she confirmed it in interviews
Sad if she had implants, because those small pointy breasts were just beautiful.
They were prosthetics by the very talented makeup crew
Well that is reassuring if it was just CGI – she has kept her wonderful real breasts, even if we don’t get to see them in that film. And I guess I can understand why they went with the CGI artificial breast look, as it fits with the theme of the movie.
CGI or prosthetics, it’s amazing how real they look. Very impressive work by Hollywood. I mean, Margaret’s “fake” breasts look much more natural than breast implants do.
Look at those nipples on Demi just begging to be sucked.
I would totally love to be in a 3-way with these 2 ladies.
I miss pre-robohooter Demi but I agree that she’s got guts. Extreme closeups on the chest, spread crotch shots at mid-range? At any age, that’s a big deal for Hollywood A-list. At 61? Bigfoot could have been in the shot and Demi’s crevice would be the rarest thing on camera.
Best shot of Qualley’s ass to date.
The prosthetic/cgi tits aren’t terrible either. I guess this is a preview of what would happen if she got some giant fakers like Bella Thorne…only Margaret would actually show them off.
I realize we all have bills to pay, even in Hollywood. This looks like a fake news thing rather than Demi Moore’s attempt at a fading career. I’m skeptical. I think she should do a Diane Keaton thing and do one of these chick flicks.
Gotta wonder if Demi’s nude scenes are actually CGI too. You just never know what CGI or AI can do nowadays. There’s a YouTube channel called fake ortega and it looks too damn real..
Yes, but that could apply to any nude scene these days, buddy. However, I don’t think it is… The shape of her nipples are just like that, from striptease and her old nude photos, you could say it’s CGI or AI to make them look identical to her real breasts, but that doesn’t make much sense, right? And not to mention that she herself confirmed that she was naked there
Just saw this at a theater, nude scenes of the year not even close
Is there a link to a movie clip with the new quality?

What happened to Demi’s ass?? Looks like an 80 year old man who was swimming for an hour, all pruned up and shapeless
As an old fart, I can tell you that’s what old ladies’ asses look like.
Demi, despite the best disguises available from modern science, is in her 60s.
Scoop, all the videos are working fine, except the first one, it didn’t open for me.
Yup, I had the same problem. I split the big clip into five small ones. Maybe that will do the trick.
I don’t care if she’s in her 60s. I’d smash. Jane Fonda is much older than her yet I would love to be fucked by Jane Fonda.
Yes, they can now fake anything and nobody knows. They already DO fake female nudity a lot more than people realize, mostly in the USA, though. That said, some actresses still do it for real. I think most of this is real. The movie, BTW.. is not very good. Overly stylized and the premise of the movie (story) strikes me as a bit juvenile, tbh. Very much a female-geared film. lol.
That said.. Moore’s nipples must be fake. Yuck! I guess they needed them to look terrible because that’s somewhat part of the message.
Actually, I wish they were fake… But they look a lot like Demi’s real breasts, she still has silicone on her breasts in real life and her nipples are exactly the same shape in other old films of Demi and photos she has posed in naked. The only thing that seems to be fake, obviously, are Margaret Qualley’s breasts… her already said so themselves, right. And she has already shown her small breasts in other films
Interesting. Wow… those are some unattractive nips.
Nope. Demi’s nips were altered. Off center. Irregular areolas. Do you not think that she could afford better? This is an effect to show an older woman desperately trying to look younger thru surgery. Just compare to her cthru in Blind (2017).
PR
It could be, but she was certainly naked on set… Even though mentioned it several times in interviews, oh, unless she was lying, but there would be no point in lying about it, since many actresses confess to using CGI, stunt doubles, etc. She may have used a little CGI, as you said… But she is certainly naked there and it is her breasts, digitally altered or not. Same thing with her butt, if you look at photos of her butt in a bikini, you will see that it is her real butt in that scene. Same thing with Margareth Qualley’s butt.
“Not a CAM” … Sorry to disappoint you, Scoop, but that’s absolutely still a CAM. Granted, it’s a really good one and definitely better than the previous version. It’s probably gonna be a little while before we get a proper HD version.
Your point being?
Made, obviously.
