CLAIRE Danes isn’t sure if she’d work with Hugh Dancy now that he’s her husband — but admits she’s “curious” about the couple’s onscreen chemistry.

Claire — who met the British actor when filming the 2007 drama Evening — says she’d consider teaming up with Hugh, but she isn’t sure.

“I’d be very curious about that,” Danes said of acting with Dancy. “We met on a movie so I have acted with him but now I know him a little better. I don’t know…”

Claire recently admitted she’s glad she married a fellow thespian — because it means the couple can pass on tips, especially when one of them is due to start work on a particularly challenging role.

“He did play an autistic person six months prior to my doing Temple Grandin, which was a really odd coincidence,” said the star, who plays the title role of autistic author and animal behavior expert Temple Grandin in her new film.

“And it was very convenient for me, because our bookshelves were already stacked with all of the required reading. It was a great gift to have him understand what I was doing in such an intimate way.”

Danes and Dancy married in September last year.
