Anne Hathaway plays an astronaut in her forthcoming film "Interstellar" and the actress says wearing a spacesuit for the first time wasn't a great experience.

"When I stepped on the set, I geeked out," she said about her first day shooting "Interstellar", reports people.com.

"And when I put on the space suit, I freaked out!" she added.

Hathaway and Matthew McConaughey play astronauts trying to find a new planet to house the citizens of the Earth, which has been ravaged by famine.
