After a year of promoting a whopping five major films, Anne Hathaway made good on her promise to get out of the spotlight.
The actor shared a video on her Instagram Oct. 2 โthe release day of her latest film โVerityโ โ in which she hilariously disappears into thin air. It comes after the actor told Entertainment Tonight in a Sept. 21 clip that she had been planning to โto vanish in a plume of smokeโ after her press tours were over.
Hathaway, whoโs also pregnant with her third child, sure has a sense of humor.
In the clip, Hathaway speaks to the camera, telling fans that sheโs โheading out to the โVerityโ premiere.โ
โโVerityโ comes out in theaters Friday, Oct. 2, and then on Oct. 3…,โ Hathaway says before abruptly vanishing from the screen as a puff of animated smoke dissipates in the room.
The video then features a flurry of faux news stories.
โAnne Hathaway simply evaporates,โ one headline says.
The clip concludes with some words from the actor, thanking her fans.
โThank you everyone for your support, and for making this an incredible, unforgettable year,โ the text says.
Now thatโs how you end a press circuit.
The hilarious post comes after Hathaway not only promoted โVerity,โ but also did press for โThe Devil Wears Prada 2,โ โMother Mary,โ โThe Odysseyโ and โThe End of Oak Street.โ
Her ubiquity in film this year led satirical outlet The Onion to release a now-viral article in August titled, โAnalysts Warn U.S. Economy Becoming Overly Dependent On Anne Hathaway.โ
In addition to the nonstop press tours, Hathaway is also pregnant, expecting her third child with husband Adam Schulman. The two share sons Jonathan, 10, and Jack, 6.
The actor said during her Sept. 30 appearance on โThe Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,โ that she got the news that she was expecting just before she was set to promote one of her films.
โI found out I was pregnant like, two-and-a-half weeks before โThe Devil Wears Prada 2โ press tour kicked off,โ said Hathaway, who announced her pregnancy in June. โAnd I was just like, โHow is that gonna work?โโ
While itโs been quite the amount of work, Hathaway told the Associated Press that itโs not necessary to โover praise the pampered actress.โ
โThereโs a lot of pregnant women out there at home and in the workplace who didnโt get a manicure this morning,โ she told the outlet in a Sept. 29 interview. โIโm very happy to do my job. I have so much support.โ
