Weisz, 42, who played the character of Tessa Quayle in the 2005 thriller, said she is forever grateful that she got picked for the role because the movie opened so many doors for her, reported Daily Star. <img alt="Rachel Weisz" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/nov/rachel.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 632px;" /> Rachel Weisz.
