    Jodie Turner-Smith "wants another baby"

    The 39-year-old actress has a five-year-old daughter called Juno with her ex-husband, 47-year-old actor Joshua Jackson - whom she married in 2019, split from in 2023, and settled their divorce in May this year


    And the Tron: Ares star joked she does not need another man to go with a second child.

    Jodie told the new issue of People magazine: "My heart is open because I definitely need to have another baby. I want another baby - but I don't necessarily need the man to go along with it!"

    The star - who currently splits time between London to film season two of Paramount+ spy thriller series The Agency, and her home in Los Angeles, where she parents Juno - has some high dating expectations for her Mr. Right, but, ultimately, he would need to understand that the tot is her number one priority.

    Jodie said: "Anybody who wants to deal with me or date me or love me or whatever needs to understand that [Juno is] my priority ... If I've made time to go out on a date with you, you need to figure it out. Send a car. Where are you taking me? A real date! Not a meetup."

    She added: "I'm single, but I love love.

    "So let's see what happens!"

    The Star Wars: The Acolyte star compared the devotion she is looking for in her perfect match to The Martian (Michael Fassbender) in The Agency, who tries his best to save Jodie's alter ego, Dr. Samia Fatima, who is imprisoned at the end of season one.

    She quipped: "It's incredible to see the lengths that he will go to for the woman that he loves.

    "I'm willing to date if it's a man who's going to be doing that, like do the most. Are you obsessed to the point of maybe a little bit of a psychopath? Because if the answer's no, keep it moving.

    "[I'm] just kidding, [but] are you going to commit treason for me or not?"

    And Jodie - who co-parents Juno with Joshua - enjoys working while being a mom.

    She explained: "I love mothering and I love working, and I don't feel I should have to choose between them.

    "I want to teach my daughter that she shouldn't have to either because we live in a society that makes women feel that you can only be this or that ... I really believe in creating a reality of both/and."
