I want to ask her about this... allegedly writer of Scream wanted her as Sidney Prescott in Scream, but she didn't want to play a teenager. She's only 5 years older than Neve Campbell.

I feel like 5 years is a lot when playing a teen.

ITA - five years can make a huge difference and no one wants to be the Steve Sanders/Andrea Zuckerman of the cast. Molly was 28 when filming began so I can understand her reluctance to play a high school student.

Molly’s career after the John Hughes years is the definition of “choices”. She passed on Blue Velvet and Pretty Woman amongst other things.

To be fair, the Pretty Woman script she got was WAY different/darker than the version Julia Robberts got.

Julia Roberts got the same darker script when she signed on. The point is Molly never took risks with her career after her goody two shoes roles she established with Hughes. She also turned down Blue Velvet because it was too dark. Like I said, choices.
