Cate Blanchett Feels That Her Projects Choose Her

Cate Blanchett sat down with Vogue to share about topics such as her career and her relationshiop with her husband, playwright Andrew Upton .
Cate says that she's not tempted to be cautious with her career choices:
"I'm not very cautious or careful. It's always been more about having a variety of experiences than any planned trajectory...I think that in a way, projects choose you."
Cate has spent the last few years performing and directing plays in Sydney, Australia and now she is currently gearing up to play Blanche DuBois in Tennessee William's 'A Streetcar Named Desire.'
On her relationship with her husband and the time they spend together in the theater:
"We do live in each others' pockets a bit, but that feels natural. It doesn't feel cramped in there at all."
On the benefits that working regular hours has given their three boys:
'There are so few experiences in our manicured, nanny-stated existence that have the quality of circus. Theater still does." And so, when the boys aren't playing with friends, they can usually be found playing backstage. "They're always engaged in the family business, so to speak.'"
Cate's next movie is Robin Hood, due out in May of 2010 and it co-stars Russell Crowe. I look forward to everything she is in. Is she one of your favorites, too?

aaah, I can totally see her as Blanche! Love, love, love her.
And what I cool life for her kids. I wish my hubby was a theater geek, too, so we could all be together like this family.
I feel that way too.

Love Cate, she's gorgeous , talented and you can actually see that she's aging gracefully, hope that face never be touched with anything like botox, surgeries , unless it's a health issue.
Can't wait to see a movie with Russell and Cate together!!!
I got to see her perform live on stage in A Streetcar Named Desire just week in DC. She was AMAZING. I have never seen anything like her before. The whole audience was just completely in awe of her. Tickets to that show were some of the best money I've ever spent!
