With her new movie "The Bourne Legacy" set to hit theaters on August 10th, Rachel Weisz garnered herself a little added exposure by covering the September 2012 issue of Marie Claire UK magazine.

The 42-year-old actress looked enchanting in a Jason Wu dress for the Tesh shot front page while opening up on swapping teenage rebellion for motherhood, Oscar-winning roles and marriage.

Highlights from Miss Weisz's interview are as follows. For more, be sure to pay a visit to Marie Claire UK!

On if it was love at first sight with 007 husband Daniel Craig:
"I’m going to change the subject... It wasn’t really like that. We’d been friends for ages."

On living with another actor:
"We don’t sit around talking about acting but you both understand you’ve got to be flexible. Every few months you start a new job."

On not being bothered by the increased interest in her private life:
"As far as downsides go, I don’t think it’s a big one. It’s something we deal with together."

On not being perfect:
"I have countless flaws - have you got a year?,' she says, standing tall in a Sophia Kokosolaki dress. 'Hopefully, as one gets older, one learns to deal with the flaws that really affect other people."

On combining acting with motherhood:
"Like any job, there are days when you're just pulling your hair out. The same as anyone who wants to be with their kid or husband. Every mother feels that don't they? Of course sometime's it's great to get away and feel, 'Hooray, I'm not changing nappies today.' I mean, I love my son but it's not without conflict."
