Anne Hathaway is a secret geek - she spends her spare time studying physics.
The Devil Wears Prada beauty admits she shuns fashion magazines and instead stocks up on books by legendary scientist Albert Einstein and physics textbooks in a bid to better understand the universe.
She tells Britain's GQ magazine, "I'm interested in elementary particles. What I like thinking about is how time and space exist in the universe and how we understand it.
"Any spare time I have, I bury my head in a physics textbook. I'm learning. I'm reading a lot about Einstein.
"I like theories. I want to understand string theory. I am dying for someone to explain quarks to me!"
But the actress is going to have little time to study with a whole host of movies on the way for her.
She joins the ensemble cast of Valentine's Day later this month before stepping into Tim Burton's world of Alice In Wonderland in March.
Also on the horizon include Love and Other Drugs, The Fiancé and Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland, in which she will play Garland.
All eyes will be on the actress tomorrow as she announces this year's Oscar nominations.
