亚历克·鲍德温：家庭就是一切

When Alec Baldwin was recently offered a movie role opposite Jennifer Garner¹, he knew he wanted in.

当亚历克·鲍德温(Alec Baldwin)最近接到与詹妮弗·加纳(Jennifer Garner)演对手戏的电影角色时，他知道自己想要加入。

"I thought, 'I love Jennifer-she's a wonderful actress and fantastic movie star,'" he says. "Who wouldn't want to do that?"

“我想，‘我喜欢詹妮弗——她是一位出色的女演员和电影明星，’”他说。“谁不想这么做呢？”

But when producers told him the job required a five-week shoot in South Africa, he had to turn it down.

但当制片人告诉他这个工作需要在南非拍摄五周时，他不得不拒绝了。

"I can't go to Africa for five weeks, because of my kids," says the father of five, who, in addition to daughter Ireland, 23, has four young children (Carmen, 5, Rafael, 4, Leonardo, 2, and Romeo, l) with his wife, Hilaria, 35.

“我不能去非洲五个星期，因为我的孩子们，”这位五个孩子的父亲说，他除了23岁的女儿爱尔兰，还有4个年幼的孩子（卡门， 5岁，拉斐尔，4岁，莱奥纳多，2岁，罗密欧，1岁）和他35岁的妻子希拉里娅。

"Everything I do and don't do revolves² around my family. But if he tries to keep overseas travel to a minimum, the 61-year-old actor's career is hotter than ever-- he has a regular gig lampooning³ President Trump⁴ on Saturday Night Live, hosts ABC's Match Game and recently appeared in both BlacKkKlans man and Mission Impossible: Fallout.

“我所做的和不做的一切都是围绕着我的家庭。”但如果他想把海外旅行的次数降到最低，这位61岁的演员的职业生涯比以往任何时候都要忙碌——他经常在《周六夜现场》(Saturday Night Live)上讽刺特朗普总统，主持美国广播公司(ABC)的《比赛》(Match Game)节目，最近还出演了《黑克兰人》(BlacKkKlans man)和《碟中谍6：全面瓦解》（Mission Impossible: Fallout）。

This month Baldwin stars in Framing John DeLorean, a movie that fuses documentary footage and scripted scenes featuring Baldwin as the disgraced '80s auto⁵ mogul.

鲍德温说，自从凭《超级制作人》获得艾美奖以来，他的职业生涯一直很火爆。“我不让我所做的任何工作影响我。如果你依靠这来做那件事，你就死定了。”

Instead he treats it as a paying gig. There are jobs I do now to make money and pay my bills for my kids, so I can go do other things," he says.
