Overview
- Anne Hathaway told Harper’s Bazaar she sees herself as defined by hard work rather than innate gifts, saying she learned early that nothing in her career would be handed to her.
- She recalled childhood dance classes where she felt stuck and later accepted that she was not a dancer and only a modest singer, which pushed her to focus on acting.
- In preparing for the upcoming film Mother Mary, she had to embody a Beyoncé‑style pop performer and confront limits she once accepted as part of her identity.
- She said she trained intensively for the role and believes she could not have worked any harder, even if others might have reached the same level faster.
- The News International reports the film as a psychosexual pop melodrama directed by David Lowery and featuring Michaela Coel, adding details beyond the Harper’s Bazaar interview.
