But first thing first, Cate reached Davos, Switzerland on 23rd January for a WEF meeting since she is a goodwill ambassador of United Nations’s refugee agency.
In between the event, she tried to lighten the ambiance while she was speaking about refugees. She told that she might be playing Melanie Trump in the movie.
The Aussie actress who turned 48 this year, further told in an interview with New York Times reporter,
“When I’m playing a character I think you have to present people warts and all.”
She again cleared that not that she could actually be playing the role. However she continued,
"I wouldn’t be necessarily coming from the place of 'Free Melania.'”
The Aviator star was also clever enough not to mention the president, Donald Trump’s name instead indirectly only hinted him.
“What does she[Melanie] think? What’s it like being married to - you know.”

How Cate Married Husband Andrew Uptown
Here's how they got married. They met while shooting for an Australian TV show. Cate admitted that it was not love at first sight and not a fan of each other. They actually kissed on the spur of the moment.
Blanchett got engaged to her husband, Andrew exactly after three days they met. Cate added a sense of humor to her love story.
As they lay together after three days of saying yes to her new boyfriend, she thought he was going to propose her for the Wedding, but instead, he said,
"No, I’m hungry do you want to go get something to eat?"
Imagine that! However, Andrew did propose her after three weeks, and Blanchett without a flinch said yes. She said in the Ellen DeGeneres that she prepared him the worst meal. But Andrew has survived 20 years. Maybe because Cate has some secret recipe for love.
