Weisz’s opportunity to be cast in husband’s movie
Moldova.ORG -- Rachel Weisz hit back at claims she scored her role in new film “The Fountain” because husband Darren Aronofsky was the director.
The Oscar winner actress insists Hugh Jackman recommended her for the part.
As FemaleFirst reports, the British actress took on the role of Izzi in the sci-fi thriller after Cate Blanchett dropped out, but only after Jackman managed to convince Aronofsky his wife was perfect for the part.
"There was just no question that I was going to be in the movie. It was really all Hugh's idea. He said to Darren, 'I think Rachel would be really right for this'", the actress tells Empire magazine.
