In the interview the star spoke about her more confident and sexy self-image in her forties, and how it contrasts her childhood dreams of becoming a nun.
'Around 40, I see myself differently, I like to meet new facets of myself. This femme fatale is one of them,' she said.
'We are quite far from the nun that you dreamed of becoming, as a young girl,' she added.
'One of the privileges of being an actress is that you never need to confine or limit your identity. I feel fluid, and I am constantly evolving. I like to explore who I am,' the star shared.
Anne, who was raised Roman Catholic, previously spoke about wanting to become a nun in a 2011 interview with the Independent.
'When I was younger, I thought about becoming a nun for a while. You know how it is when you’re growing up and you’re going to be a lot of different things, but I actually wanted to be an actress before I wanted to be a nun. The nun was more of a sidebar thing.'
Hathaway later broke from the church after her older brother came out.
As for her career, Anne recently revealed she is returning for the third installment of Disney's Princess Diaries franchise.
The starlet took to Instagram to confirm the news, sharing clips from the film alongside her counting down to the announcement.
'Miracles happen,' she penned to fans. 'Back to Genovia with @adeleblim @disney @somewherepictures. The fairy tale continues.'

As for her career, she is next set to return for the third installment of Disney's Princess Diaries franchise (Anne pictured in 2001 with Julie Andrews)
However, Julie Andrews has already confirmed she would not be reprising her role as Queen Clarisse Renaldi.
Disney handed the reigns to the project over to celebrity director Adele Lim — who has previously worked on Crazy Rich Asians, Raya and the Last Dragon.
The hotly anticipated film has been in the works since 2022, but details surrounding the plot have been kept under wraps. Disney has yet to confirm a release date.
When she's not working, Hathaway is a busy mom of two. She shares sons Jonathan (born in 2016) and Jack (born in 2019) with husband Adam Shulman, 43, to whom she's been married to since 2012.
