Cate Blanchett - Vanity Fair February 2009

Cate Blanchett spices up the February 2009 cover of Glamour Magazine.

Speaking of husband Andrew:
“I thought, ‘Oh, god, he’s going to ask me to marry him – and I’m going to have to say yes!’ He didn’t, in fact; he asked me what I wanted for dinner or something like that. But I’d never had that thought before. I thought, This is extraordinary! I’ve never felt this before. What an adventure!”

Speaking of any future babies:
“Who knows? Don’t close those doors. The world is very overpopulated, but we do make nice ones. They all look like [my husband Andrew Upton]. To say he has dominant genes would be an understatement.”

Cate says that she hasn’t had any plastic surgery:
“Andrew said he’d divorce me if I did anything. When you’ve had children, your body changes; there’s history to it. I like the evolution of that history; I’m fortunate to be with somebody who likes the evolution of that history.”

Cate Blanchett has revealed her decade of travelling the world making films is coming to an end because her children need to settled down.

Up to now, five year old Dashiell (known as Dash) and three year old Roman have travelled with mum, attending Montessori nurseries wherever she was filming and also visiting her on her film sets. But, she now believes it’s time for “her sweet-smelling little dumplings” to settle down.

She told W magazine that Dash needs to attend “a proper school”: “He’s five now. He needs to be settled, and I need to respect that.”

She and husband Andrew Upton have decided to settle in her native Australia, where, from January for three years, they will be co-artistic directors of the Sydney Theatre Company.

But in addition to overseeing the company’s 12 actors, education arm and dozen productions a year, she hasn’t ruled out also having more children during that time: “We’re not going to wait forever. God, I’d love it to be now. I’d love it to be next week.”

Cate Blanchett - W Magazine - October 2007

"Queen Cate" has been edited for Style.com; the complete story appears in the October 2007 issue of W.



In the accompanying article (never mind that other headline about “The Real L Word”; you’ll hear all about that in this week’s Best. Lesbian. Week. Ever.), Cate talks about her initial reluctance to revisit her royal role.

“When [director Shekhar Kapur] mentioned it to me before, I always said no. Why would I want to do that? What else is there to say?” she says. This script, however, which finds the Queen at mid-reign, single and childless, struck a chord. “I started thinking about what supposed ‘middle age’ means and the really modern concern that women have about infertility and the loss of one’s attractiveness.”

As The Golden Age prepares to hit theaters, there is already talk of a third film. Kapur has said that he always envisioned the Elizabeth story as a trilogy. Cate hasn’t committed to a threequel, but conceded that there is certainly enough source material for another film.

“There are endless possibilities with Elizabeth ... And I think there will be a lot more Elizabeth [films] because she’s endlessly fascinating.”
