Happy Birthday, Miranda Otto! You're 43 Today, December 16!

After slowing things down to be at home with her daughter, Australian actress will choose roles as they come.

Happy Birthday Miranda Otto! The actress who has starred in films like Lord of the Rings, What Lies Beneath and War of the Worlds likes to stay out of the spotlight, due to the fact that she’s terrfied of becoming a celebrity under a lot of media ressure like fellow Aussie Nicole Kidman! She prefers to be at home with her daughter, Darcey, 5, and husband Peter O’Brien in Australia.

Happy Birthday, Don Johnson!

“Around the time of The Lord of the Rings, it was a shock to me just how big it is to be on that kind of media juggernaut,” Miranda explains. “It was a big thing and the scrutiny was shocking. I think that’s what I meant with the Nicole comment, the incredible scrutiny she’s under. There’s such big pressure on people who are incredibly famous, on those who have people sitting outside their front door and taking photos every time they move. That way of living, I fully sympathize with. My life’s not like Nicole Kidman’s, though.” We hope Miranda has a fantastic and relaxing birthday! Hopefully we will see her in a new film sometime soon!
