FREDRICKA WHITFIELD, CNN ANCHOR: Well, the angels are back, Charlie's Angels, that is. The sequel opens at movie theaters today. One of the movie's stars is Demi Moore, who's back making a name for herself.
CNN's Janine Sharell has that.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP FROM "CHARLIE'S ANGELS: FULL THROTTLE")
DEMI MOORE: Tell Charlie hello for me when you see him.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
JANINE SHARELL, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): She's been dubbed the comeback babe. It's Demi Moore, 40, mother of three, having a devil of a good time in "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle."
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP FROM "CHARLIE'S ANGELS: FULL THROTTLE")
MOORE: I'm just having a little fun.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
DREW BARRYMORE, ACTRESS: He wrote the part for her and just, you know, talked to her until she was convinced it was the right thing to do.
MOORE: The camaraderie that everyone has seen or felt is so genuine and I think that that really extends outward, you know, to everyone, not just me, but to everyone that was involved in a very family, you know, way.
SHARELL: She's splashed on magazine covers and in the tabloids, thanks to her much talked about relationship with 25-year-old Ashton Kutcher.
MICHAEL FLEEMAN, "PEOPLE" MAGAZINE: She is a beautiful, glamorous woman. He's a good looking guy on the way up, you know? Why not? And the irony here is if the genders were reversed, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
SHARELL: Kutcher escorted her to the L.A. "Full Throttle" premier, as did her ex, Bruce Willis. Moore left Hollywood about five years ago following her divorce and a string of film flops, including "Striptease" and "G.I. Jane." (BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
MOORE: Come on.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
SHARELL: Moore, who was the first actress to command $12 million for a film, didn't have to come back for the money.
FLEEMAN: She is richer than god. She's one of the producers of the Austin Powers series. So she gets a chunk of that change.
SHARELL (on camera): Whether she was reluctantly recruited or it was a carefully orchestrated comeback, Demi Moore's sudden return to the spotlight puts her in a league of her own, the resurrected, semi- middle aged female superstar.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I just think people are excited about Demi because she's a mother of three, she's a beautiful woman. She goes toe to toe with Cameron Diaz in a bikini and that's saying something.
SHARELL (voice-over): The body, the beaux and the box office aside, Demi says she's intent on keeping things in perspective.
MOORE: And I think most importantly you have to live by what you know to be the truth and your truth and take it all with a grain of salt. And, you know, like the film, you can't take it all too seriously.
SHARELL: Janine Sharell, CNN, Los Angeles.
