The November issue spotlighted eight women—Elizabeth Olsen, Viola Davis, Michelle Pfeiffer, Evan Rachel Wood, Stacey Snider, Barbra Streisand are the others—who are leaving their marks on the silver screen.

Aniston dismissed baby rumors and said she is leaving motherhood to fate.

"But it’s not what you read. There’s no desperation. If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be. I’m at peace with whatever the plan is," said Aniston, who is dating actor Justin Theroux.

On her relationship with Dev Patel, Pinto agrees age is just a number. 

"I don’t think the age factor is any kind of annoyance—I find him to be more of an old soul than I am," Pinto said. "His wisdom comes from a place that’s very difficult to pinpoint: How did a 21-year-old think of that?"

While some of the featured stars are just starting their careers, Watts talked about her breakthrough role in "Mulholland Drive." 

"It was a game-changer, but I knew I had to be careful. You can get a lot of attention and still be gone in a flash," Watts reminisced.
