Actress Mandy Moore discussed her approach to managing screen time for her three young children during a recent interview. When traveling with her sons Gus and Ozzie and daughter Lou, Moore relies on the ABCmouse educational app to keep them engaged while teaching foundational skills like reading, math, and music. She noted that during a recent two-hour flight home, both boys remained occupied with the app’s interactive lessons, allowing her to feel confident about their digital consumption.
Moore also addressed her own digital habits, admitting she struggles to limit her phone usage but uses app-blocking tools to maintain balance. She confessed to impulse purchases through Instagram that she often forgets making until items arrive at her door, describing herself as vulnerable to targeted advertising.
The actress is preparing for the premiere of “The Land,” a new Hulu series created by Dan Fogelman that reunites them following their work on “This Is Us.” The show centers on an NFL team-owning family and features Moore in a dramatically different role—playing an ambitious daughter determined to take control of the organization. Moore described the series as combining elements of “Friday Night Lights” and “Succession,” noting she conducted research with women in similar positions within NFL organizations to prepare for the complex character.
Regarding her music career, Moore indicated she has no plans for a comeback like her close friend Hilary Duff, praising Duff’s successful return to performing while balancing motherhood.
