Catherine Zeta Jones: I’m too old to play sexy roles

Hollywood actress wants more grown-up parts

Catherine Zeta Jones plans to start taking on more mature roles in movies.

The Welsh-born mum-of-two has wowed Hollywood as a sex symbol in Chicago, Entrapment and The Mask Of Zorro, but now insists it’s time to ditch the pin-up act and take on older parts.

‘I’m 38 years old and I’m going to play more mums than sex symbols,’ she tells the Daily Record. 'That’s a gradual thing for me because I’m too old to play the ingenue [inexperienced/young girl].'

Catherine’s latest movie, Death Defying Acts, is due to hit the big screen later this month.
