Rachel recently chatted with Deadline about how her life has changed after winning an Oscar for her work in The Constant Gardner.

“Immediately afterward, I was offered jobs by interesting directors, including Alejandro Amenábar. Peter Jackson offered me a role. I didn’t have to meet people. They just offered me jobs, these big fancy directors. People believe in you more after you’ve won an Oscar, but it’s up to you what choices you make and how that goes,” Rachel shared.
