Halle, who also has a seven-year-old daughter Nahla with Gabriel Aubrey, was seen taking out the rubbish outside her home in Los Angeles on Thursday.

She is currently starring as astronaut Molly Woods in new sci-fi show Extant.

And despite being an Oscar-winning actress, Halle admitted in an interview with The Sun that she was terrified of starring in her first TV in years. 

'The best things in my opinion are on television now. So I'm lucky to get to be on TV actually.

'In a show of this quality with these show runners, these actors, it's high quality, and I feel really lucky that I get to work in this medium.'

Halle, who's famous for her roles in X-Men, and Mother's Ball, for which she won the Best Actress Oscar in 2002, reveals that playing astronaut Molly has been the hardest part of her career.

'It is a whole lot of work. I mean, I've never worked so hard in my life.

'I was nursing, my baby was just three months old when we started, so I was doing drive-by nursings every two hours and I was over my head - the amount of scenes we shoot in a day, the things I had to memorise.'
