Cate Blanchett Said 'Yes' to 'Blue Jasmine' Before Reading Script!

Cate Blanchett chats with a pal as she heads through JFK Airport en route to Los Angeles on Wednesday (July 24) in New York City.

The 44-year-old actress recently chatted with CBS News, where she told them she said “yes” to her latest film Blue Jasmine with Woody Allen before even reading the script!

“Well, when Woody called and said he had a script, I’d already decided I was going to do it,” Cate said. “And then you just hope it’s a good one.”

“Apart from being an extraordinary, legendary filmmaker, he’s an amazing dramatist. And so the screenplay was beautifully structured,” Cate added about Woody.

FYI: Cate is wearing Roger Vivier sandals and carrying a Tod’s handbag.
