Actress Jessica Chastain does not understand why some Hollywood stars say they don't get the privacy they want as she says she can control her fame and keep a low profile if she wants to.
The "Zero Dark Thirty" star insists there is a way for Hollywood stars to "set their own privacy" in the film industry by not attending popular celebrity haunts, reported Female First.
"In this industry you can set your own privacy. If I go to certain restaurants with my boyfriend I know we're going to get photographed," she said.
"But when the public is involved in your relationship... they can demand or ask questions because they feel like they have an ownership of it, because you sold it. That means they have a say in your private life."
The 39-year-old actress also opened up about what she looks for in each movie role she takes on.
"My experience with making movies is that I want to walk away from each role, and each set, having learned something and grown as a person.
