Kate Winslet: I worried I’d row with my husband on film set

But director Sam Mendes put actress at ease

Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes wed in 2003

Kate Winslet had reservations about working with her husband Sam Mendes on the movie Revolutionary Road.

The actress won a Golden Globe this week for her role in the flick, which was directed by Sam, 44.

‘I was really impatient to work with him,’ she explains. ‘It was at the point where I was thinking, “Oh, come on, I want to know who you really, really are, every last bit.”

‘Going into it, I did have several moments where I would say “Oh my God, what if we have a row? What will we do?”

'And Sam would say, “Oh, don’t be silly, of course we won’t.” And I was thinking, “Oh, well, I’m sure we won’t – I hope we don’t.”’

Kate, 33, was excited to be reunited with Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio, 34.

‘He knows my buttons, and I know his, and know how to push them in very specific ways,’ she tells The Guardian.

Revolutionary Road is released on 30 January.
