Jessica Biel Talks Marriage, Justin And Acting In Elle

Hitchcock star Jessica Biel, dressed in a silk and tulle Dior design, strikes a high-fashion pose on the January 2013 cover of Elle. Inside the magazine, Jessica posed with designers Jean Paul Gaultier, Azzedine Alaia, Maison Martin Margiela, Christian Louboutin, and Giambattista Valli, who famously created her pink wedding gown. It's been less than two months since Jessica and Justin Timberlake tied the knot in Italy, and she's already happily sharing thoughts on marriage as well as plans for the future. Here's more from Jess:

• Jessica on her honeymoon: "Honeymooning is the best thing about being a newlywed. I wish I could honeymoon forever."
• Jessica on marriage: "It means always having someone there to open the pickle jar . . . to share the ups and downs with, have adventures with. Someone to go swimming naked with. That kind of thing."
• Jessica on Justin's domestic sensibility: "He bakes pies. He's Southern, so he's got all this influence from his grandma. He does a three-layer pie . . . and blueberry crunch cake, which is pretty unbelievable. It doesn't happen all that often, thank God. Otherwise, it would be a big problem."
• Jessica on the future: "My goal now is to work with great directors. Small role, big role, medium-size role—it doesn't matter. I just want to work with someone who's going to push me to a scary, exciting place that I've never been before."
