#AnneHathaway#Actor HollyWood #hollywood Anne Hathaway would wait decades for Adam Shulman. In fact, it was the actress' love for her husband of nearly 14 years that helped inspire her performance in 'The Odyssey' as the character Penelope, who waits 20 years for the return of her husband Odysseus, played by Matt Damon. “I am one of the luckiest people on the planet Earth,” Hathaway told Justin Sylvester during Live from E! Stream at the film's New York City premiere July 14. “I met my soulmate, and we decided to get married and have a family.” The 43-year-old noted that costar Damon felt similarly about his marriage to Luciana Barroso Damon. “We both kind of started playing these characters in this deep love relationship,” she added, “knowing that it was possible.” Indeed, Schulman helps Hathaway—mom to sons Jonathan, 10, and Jack, 6—feel like the Princess of Genovia IRL, as she raved that she had the best accessory of the night as she and Shulman are currently expecting their third child. “Cannot be beat. This is a lovely microphone,” she quipped to E! while cradling her baby bump, “but I prefer my accessory.” Full Stor

I am with the queen herself, Anne Hathaway.
Ma'am, stop it right now.
You stop it in that top.
I'm trying.
Oh my God, those arms though.
You like it?
Yeah.
Do you like it?
Yeah.
I feel like you have the best accessory here though.
Can't be beat.
Can not be beat.
This is a lovely microphone, but I prefer my accessory.
I gotta ask you, when you went into this as Penelope,
you're a wife and you're a mother.
What of your experience did you bring into this role?
Because I felt that it was deep.
It was.
Look, I am one of the luckiest people on the planet earth.
I met my soulmate and we decided to get married
and have a family.
And I have that in common with my character.
And I'm also, Matt is in a similar situation.
So we both kind of started playing these characters
in this deep love relationship,
knowing that it was possible.
Yeah.
Now, Christopher Nolan has called multiple times
and you have answered.
What is it about Christopher Nolan
that makes people want to work with him time and time again?
Oh, he's, I mean, I feel like talking about him,
it almost sounds trite to try to put it into words,
but he's the total package.
He's so intelligent.
He's got an engineering brain.
He's got, I know this is going to sound like faint praise,
but I really mean it.
He's got common sense.
By the way, sometimes people don't have common sense.
He has so much common sense.
He loves cinema and that would be one thing,
but then he's got this tremendous humanity
inside all of it.
And he loves art.
And so when you put all of that together
and he's loyal, which is great for me.
By the way, he is loyal.
This is your third one, right?
He's a loyal man.
And some of the members of his crew,
they've done every single film with him.
They've been there since the beginning.
And so I just, I respect him so much as a person
and as an artist, he's everybody's dream.
I love it.
Anne Hathaway, you look absolutely gorgeous tonight.
Right back at you.
I'm nearly in tears right here.
We're going to let you get in here.
Thank you.
