Kate Beckinsale considers going to rehab after making every movie

The 38-year-old actress always feels drained after shooting a film but she was impressed by how hard her director husband Len Wiseman worked on their new movie Total Recall and says his efforts put actors to shame.

She said: "It's so immersive for a director doing a movie like this and I really feel like I've got so much more insight into that that I ever would have had before.

"We're sprinters, actors are. We come in and then we do the sprint and then we go, 'Oh my God, I'm so tired, I must go on holiday immediately, I'm exhausted, maybe I will go to rehab.' 

"And Len has been doing it for two years, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It's extremely impressive and kind of humbling."

Kate has a 13-year-old daughter, Lily, with ex-partner Michael Sheen and says the teenager enjoyed visiting her on the set of Total Recall - mainly because of her co-star Colin Farrell.

She told Britain's OK! magazine: "This one she really enjoyed because Colin was coming down his trailer stairs in just a pair of pyjamas covered in tattoos and holding his baby.

"I mean, what 13 year old doesn't want to see that? An extremely titillating image. But everybody was really cool with her."
