Zhang Ziyi's character in 'Sophie's Revenge' might be one to fight to win back her ex, but the actress said she would not do so in real life.
"Sophie is stubborn in love, it is a far cry from me," Zhang said in a recent interview with ifeng.com. "If I were dumped by my boyfriend, I would not fight him back in her way, I won't do that."
Zhang co-stars with Fan Bingbing, Ruby Lin and Yao Chen in this stellar romantic comedy, featuring female characters each with their own style of pursuing love.
While Zhang has a different view of love than Sophie, she said she can appreciate independent women.
The film's Chinese name is "Fei Chang Wan Mei," literally "Really Perfect." So what is a perfect woman in Zhang Ziyi's opinion?
The actress said she thought a perfect woman would not let a man lead her by the nose. The women she likes and respects are all those who stand on their own and have their own outlook on family, the world and their values.
Actress Zhang Ziyi graces the cover of ELLE China August issue.
Despite her often luxurious image as an actress in the spotlight, the actress revealed she is actually more inclined to live an ordinary life behind the scenes. And she repeatedly talked about her dreams of starting a family in numerous interviews on TV and in print.
In her latest interview with fashion magazine ELLE, which she graces the cover of next month, Zhang again opened up about her desire for a family life but admitted to a fear of marriage.
However, it seems her dream of starting a family may be slipping away as her wedding plan is once again up in the air.
Tabloids reported that her August wedding to Israeli billionaire Vivi Nevo has been postponed due to their busy schedules. Friends reportedly first leaked this news to the New York Post's gossip column last Sunday.
The two got engaged last February and were said to have been planning to get married in 2009 in a fancy wedding on a beautiful island off the Italian coast.
The abrupt cancellation of next month's wedding also triggered wide speculation on the health of the couple's seemingly stable relationship.
Zhang is currently in China promoting her movie "Sophie's Revenge," which premieres on August 14th.
