However, when one troll accused the star of “having a mid life crisis or something”, Beckinsale had the best response: “Oh, I think that’s because you’re an annoying asshole,” she replied.

Many of her 3.6 million followers applauded the clapback to the “ageist” and “embarrassing” comments. Of course, no one is quicker on the draw with a one-liner than Beckinsale.

If a hater comes for her, she is there with a comeback immediately, and has previously shut down trolls who took aim at everything from her dating life to her red carpet style and parenting.

From where we’re standing the actress has a retort for everything, and this petty troll was no exception. Hey, if this is what a “mid-life crisis” looks like, then sign us up.
