Jessica Alba - Celebrity Interview - Main Image

and I love that my character has a connection with him, because she’s maternal, and she has great instincts. And certainly, feminine instincts. You know, the boys are so 'rah!' and so ready to fight, and pass judgment when they feel like something is threatening, whereas Sue kind of tries to look past every situation, and see something beyond the obvious. That’s something that’s really cool about this movie, for my character, but also for the way I relate to the Silver Surfer."

One final thing you might not know about Alba: she's next co-starring in an offbeat indie movie called The Ten, a comedy about following the ten commandments. The large cast includes Paul Rudd and Liev Schreiber. After that it's Good Luck Chuck, a high-concept romantic comedy with Dane Cook.

For now, she's able to summarize everything you'll love about Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer in a few seconds, which is all the more impressive in that it sounds unrehearsed: "Well the first film we did a lot of setup, how we became the Fantastic Four, and all that. This time we just hit the ground running. In the first five minutes of the film we have action, we have amazing special effects, you get right into the thick of the storyline, us planning our wedding and all of that anxiety that comes with that. It’s really quite lighthearted, and it’s really great for a family; there’s nothing vulgar, there’s nothing incredibly violent. It’s a really feel-good popcorn movie."
