2003 was a busy year for the Hollywood star as she gave birth to her second child, daughter Carys Zeta Jones, and also starred in two movies. ‘Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas’ saw ZJ playing love interest ‘Marina’ to Brad Pitt’s Sinbad. A less 2D on-screen partner for the actress was George Clooney in the dark-romantic comedy ‘Intolerable Cruelty’ by the Cohen brothers. Zeta-Jones played a feisty serial divorcee to Clooney’s divorce attorney and the two were to meet up again in ‘Ocean’s Twelve’ the 2004 sequel to mega-hit ‘Ocean’s Eleven’.
Away from the movie cameras, Catherine and husband Michael were performing a more serious role in London’s Royal Courts of Justice as they eventually fought a victory over the unauthorised use of their wedding snaps that were printed in rival magazine Hello! The Douglases initially failed to obtain an injunction against the magazine to stop publication, but were later awarded damages. During the trial much publicity was given over to Zeta-Jones’ utterance that a million pounds meant very little to the Hollywood couple.
In 2005, Zeta-Jones teamed up once again with director Martin Campbell and actor Antonio Banderas to reprise her role of Elena in ‘The Legend of Zorro’.The film was less commercially successful than the original 1998 box office hit.
To-date Zeta-Jones has been kept busy with her own production company Milkwood, which plans to make several feature films in her beloved Wales and home town of Swansea.As well as her acting and producing commitments Zeta-Jones is also an advertising spokesperson for mobile phone company T-Mobile.
