Anne Hathaway Became "A Raw Vegan" And Took Up Yoga To Prepare For Role In Apple TV+ Drama WeCrashed

Anne Hathaway took on a "raw vegan" diet for her role in WeCrashed.

The 39-year-old actress plays Rebekah Neumann in the upcoming AppleTV+ series and she mirrored the WeWork businesswoman's lifestyle while working on the show, which includes avoiding all foods of animal origin, while also making sure all foods are eaten raw or at temperatures below 40-48°C.

Appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the Oscar-winning actress said, "So I became... so I became a raw vegan. I did that thing — I don't know if you have gone vegan.

"By the way, it's great. And we should do as much as we can to eat vegetables for the environment.

"We all know that at this point, I hope. Thank you. I've got to tell you, I did eat antelope in Texas this weekend. We're all people."

While Hathaway — who has kids Jonathan, five, and Jack, two, with husband Adam Schulman — did 'method act' for the role, she didn't go as full-on as she has done in the past.

She added: "Let me explain. Yeah, I mean, my kids love me, and I'm sure on some level, care about what I do, but also, like, just want their mom.

"So I don't really go as immersive as I did before I had kids.

"But I did get very into yoga, and I actually really want to thank my teacher Niki who worked with me every single day getting ready to play Rebekah. Rebekah is a very passionate vegan."

Hathaway stars alongside Jared Leto in 'WeCrashed — which is inspired by the podcast WeCrashed: The Rise and Fall of WeWork — as struggling real-life couple Rebekah and Adam Neumann, who founded the US commercial real estate company.

As reported by Variety, the series will follow the "greed-filled rise and inevitable fall of WeWork and the narcissists whose chaotic love made it all possible".

WeCrashed will premiere on AppleTV+ on Friday (Mar 18). Watch Hathaway's interview with Colbert here:
