Catherine Zeta-Jones sat down this morning with Matt Lauer to promote her latest high-profile film project ‘Rock of Ages.’

The movie hits theaters tomorrow and CZJ chatted about her role as the uptight Patricia Whitmore. The character is married to the Mayor of Los Angeles and wants to shut down The Bourbon Room, owned by the Alec Baldwin character Dennis Dupree.

The Academy Award-winning actress, of Welsh descent, is married to actor Michael Douglas. The couple faced a medical crisis in the summer of 2010 when he was diagnosed with stage IV throat cancer.

Douglas is now doing well and is set to star in HBO’s Liberace biopic ‘Behind the Candelabra’, a made-for-television drama with a star-studded cast that includes Rob Lowe and Matt Damon.

Zeta-Jones, 42, picked up some unwanted publicity in April 2011 when her previously undisclosed bipolar II condition was exposed after she spent time at Silver Hill Hospital in Connecticut under an assumed name.

The actress addressed the subject with Lauer. Check out the TODAY interview below:
