With two more Oscar nods—one as Queen Elizabeth and one as a houndstooth-clad Bob Dylan—Cate continues to prove that she is one of the best actors on the planet.
And it’s a planet worth saving. Cate agrees. She’s the spokesperson for the Australian Conservation Foundation’s “Who On Earth Cares” initiative. It helps people generate letters to politicians expressing concern over global warming. So far, over 18,000 Aussies have taken part.
