Anne Hathaway recently shared with Women's Wear Daily that she feels like she's on the right track with her upcoming third film directed by Christopher Nolan. She first teamed up with Nolan in The Dark Knight Rises, where she played Catwoman. In Interstellar, she acted alongside Matthew McConaughey. Now, the Oscar-winning actress is set to join a star-studded cast that features Tom Holland, Zendaya, Charlize Theron, and Matt Damon in a new, untitled project from Nolan.

Anne Hathaway's deep bond with Christopher Nolan's universe.

Hathaway shared with WWD that her emotions about being part of her third Nolan film are pretty complicated, making it hard for her to express them. She feels a rush of excitement just thinking about it... Being welcomed into the world of Christopher and Emma Nolan is one of the best experiences she could imagine, and she really loves them. She never thought she’d get the chance to be in three films, feeling like that would be asking for too much, but getting the offer twice was a huge deal, and now she’s feeling quite emotional about it. Somehow, it feels like her hard work has been recognized.

Earlier this year, Hathaway shared with Vanity Fair that Nolan played a crucial role in reviving her career when she faced a backlash during the Oscar season for Les Misérables. At that time, she was heavily ridiculed online, and she remembered Googling herself after winning the Oscar, only to find a headline that read: "Why does everyone hate Anne Hathaway?"

In her chat with Vanity Fair, Hathaway mentioned that the negative perception of her online was a big factor in her losing out on roles. But Nolan, being the supportive figure he is, didn’t let that affect his decision and cast her in one of the most remarkable roles of her career in a high-profile film..

Anne Hathaway reflects on how Interstellar influenced her.

Hathaway talked about Nolan and her role as Dr. Amelia Brand, a NASA scientist in Interstellar. She mentioned that she wasn't sure if he realized he was supporting her at the time, but it definitely had a positive impact. Thanks to his backing, her career didn’t hit a dead end like it might have otherwise.

She went on to share with WWD that being cast in Interstellar was a refreshing and uplifting experience for her. It felt like a real gift at that point in her life. No matter where she was in her career, landing that role was a huge milestone. As both an actress and a person, she felt more secure and energized the moment she entered that universe.
