UMA THURMAN: JUST HAPPY TO BE WORKING

Looking peaceful, Uma Thurman is relaxing for a moment between shots in New York’s Central Park where she’s filming her new series for Apple TV called Suspicion. Uma plays a successful Manhattan businesswoman whose 21 year old son is abducted from an upscale New York hotel and the action is captured on video – which goes viral. Four British citizens staying at the hotel become prime suspects, but they might not be as guilty as they appear. If this series is half as good as Nicole Kidman’s The Undoing- we’re IN! Uma and Nicole are about the same age and it’s nice to see them working steadily.

UMA THURMAN IS OUT TO SCARE YOU

It’s been awhile since we’ve seen Uma Thurman onscreen and she’s looking particularly good while promoting her new Netflix series Chambers. (premiers April 26) It’s described as a psychological horror series about a teenage girl who has a heart transplant. The well-intentioned and well-to-do parents (Uma and Tony Goldwyn) of the heart donor become involved with the Apache Indian girl who received their daughter’s heart. And, of course, the Indian girl starts taking on some creepy characteristics of her heart donor. Reviewers praise Uma’s performance more than they do the supernatural story, but it’s worth a look…

THIS IS A FAMOUS MOVIE STAR’S MOTHER: GUESS WHO!

#umathurman #janetcharlton

Who knew Uma Thurman had such a glamorous mother? Uma’s mother was a Swedish model, Nena von Schlebrugge, who was discovered at the age of 15 in Stockholm and flown to New York in the 50’s. (Nena’s mother had been a model as well.) She was a huge success as a cover girl and married – of all people- LSD guru Timothy Leary in 1965. She came to her senses after a year and married Uma’s father Robert Thurman, a professor of Tibetan Buddhism. Their daughter Uma started her career as a fashion model at 15 also – that’s THREE generations of models! Uma is currently pregnant with her third child – fathered by London based financier Arpad Busson.

BREAKING UP WITH UMA THURMAN IS HARD TO DO

Uma Thurman’s exboyfriends find it a real challenge to stay away from her. She was photographed being nuzzled in the park by her most recent ex , international playboy Arpad Busson. Arpad reportedly lost hundreds of millions of dollars he had invested with Bernie Madoff. But he survived and he and Uma were engaged when they split up a few months ago. Apparently, the split was a failure. Uma had the same kind of off-gain, on-again romance with hotelier Andre Balazs for several years.
