Jessica Chastain Rules Out ‘Rodham’ Role

Jessica ChastainThe list of actresses rumored to be in the running to portray Senator Hillary Clinton in Rodham has just been shortened by one.

When answering questions at a press conference for the charity event Sound of Change in London last night, Jessica Chastain made it clear that she is not being considered for the role. "No, that's actually not true. I found out about the project online, but, yeah, there's a lot of stuff out there," she said.

Reese Witherspoon, Amanda Seyfried, and Scarlett Johansson are among the other actresses believed to be in the competition for the coveted role. The Spectacular Now director James Ponsoldt will helm the biopic and has already spoken generously about the actresses in the running: “They’re all wonderful actresses. We’re very fortunate that a lot of really great actors are interested in playing these roles. We’re in an enviable position.”

Rodham will focus on Clinton's early days in Arkansas during the Watergate scandal.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Dating,

Jessica Chastain and her boyfriend Gian Luca Passi de PreposuloJessica Chastain has been dating her boyfriend for almost a year.

The Zero Dark Thirty actress is smitten with Moncler fashion executive Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo and although they have managed to keep their romance under wraps until recently, they have been together for some time.

"Jessica's been seeing him since last summer. She thinks he's smart and talented," a source told Us Magazine.

Jessica - who went public with her romance for the first time last month at the Women in Film Pre-Oscar Cocktail Party in Los Angeles - has previously admitted she prefers to date people who don't share her profession because they attract less attention. "'I have a rule. No actors... I've only been on a couple of dates with one and I was so freaked out someone was going to take a picture of us, because they were famous. I realized I wanted just to be able to hang out with someone. And I didn't want to talk about the business," said the 35-year-old beauty.

The Zero Dark Thirty star has never denied dating someone, but she had never been spotted with him in public together until now. When pressed about whether or not she has a boyfriend on Katie, the 35 year-old answered, "I do. But I will say I have a rule I don't date actors, so he's not in the business, at all… He’s in the fashion industry." Passi de Preposulo works as a manager for outwear designer Moncler.

The pair were seen Friday night at Fig & Olive in Los Angeles, where Chastain chatted with her The Help co-star Viola Davis and Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe.

Jessica Chastain: Awards Make Me Vulnerable

Jessica Chastain at this year's Golden Globe AwardsJessica Chastain becomes "vulnerable" when nominated for awards.

The flame-haired beauty recently took home the Best Actress Golden Globe for her role as CIA agent Maya in Kathryn Bigelow's political thriller Zero Dark Thirty and with other potential awards in the pipeline - including an Oscar - she feels "anything" is possible after receiving so much support from family, friends and fans.

"I don't work for awards but when you receive support and encouragement, it opens me up more, it helps me be vulnerable. I think that's why I got so emotional at the Golden Globes - to feel the support I was getting at that moment made me feel like I could do anything," she said.

Since soaring to fame after playing ditzy housewife Celia Foote in 2011's The Help - which she won numerous Best Supporting Actress awards for - Jessica ensures she focuses more on her career and avoids causing any drama in her personal life: "I really made an effort to not put myself in situations where my private life becomes more interesting than my work. Like being seen dancing on a table in a nightclub. I'm not interested in that kind of, er, acknowledgement."

Jessica Chastain Won’t Date Actors

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Dating,

Jessica ChastainJessica Chastain will never date an actor again.

The Zero Dark Thirty actress previously romanced a famous movie star during her time at The Juilliard School - New York's esteemed performing arts academy - but she spent the whole evening "freaking out" that the pair would be snapped by the paparazzi, so she has vowed never to repeat the experience.

"I have a rule. No actors. I have dated an actor before, at Juilliard, but since then, I've only been on a couple of dates with one and I was so freaked out someone was going to take a picture of us, because they were famous," she said.

The 35-year-old beauty finds it "boring" talking about her acting work with potential lovers, but she enjoys discussing films with boyfriends in the same way as a 15-year-old fan of big screen productions: "I realized I wanted just to be able to hang out with someone ... And I didn't want to talk about the business, first of all. I love movies. But I love talking about them like when I was 15 years old. I'm a film fan, but I don't want to talk about auditions or what movie I'm gonna do. I find that so boring."
