Rachel Weisz Will 'Dissuade' Henry From Becoming an Actor

Calling motherhood a “tremendous experience,” Rachel Weisz says in a new interview that it’s nonetheless a hard concept to grasp until it actually happens.

“People tell you about motherhood and you think, yeah, yeah, whatever,” the 39-year-old actress tells The Sunday Telegraph. “But it’s something you have to experience for yourself to know what it is.”

“It’s impossible to talk about it in any sensible way without sounding ridiculous.”

Having accepted the Best Supporting Actress Oscar while seven months pregnant with Henry Chance, 3 ½, in 2006, Rachel says that she hopes it is her son’s first and last brush with the Academy Awards!

“I hope he’s not an actor…I’d dissuade him as hard as I could,” she confides. “I say to people, ‘If there’s anything else you can think of doing, you should that,’ purely because the success level is so low. It’s very hard. The odds are so against you.”

From the sound of things, she might be fighting an uphill battle. Henry attended the curtain call for one of mom’s performances in London’s A Streetcar Named Desire, and liked what he saw! “He figured out bowing and getting claps,” Rachel reports. “So, yesterday, he put on his policeman’s outfit and bowed. That was the show.”

As for whether or not she and fiancé Darren Aronofsky have plans to expand their family of three, Rachel says “not right now.” She adds,

“I’m very busy and there’s so much I want to do. I feel I’m just getting going.”

Rachel’s new film The Lovely Bones is playing in select cities now and hits theaters January 15th.
