"For me, this is a whole new world," she said over lunch at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills -- a favorite haunt of Hollywood celebrities.
Queen Noor of Jordan is the last wife and widow of King Hussein of Jordan. She was queen consort of Jordan during her marriage (1978–1999) and has been queen dowager of Jordan since her husband's death in 1999.
She is an American, born of Syrian, British and Swedish descent. She is the current president of the United World Colleges movement and an advocate of the anti-nuclear weapons proliferation campaign, Global Zero.
"Queen Noor's perspective became important in the tweaking of this movie," said Bender. "She brought a global perspective and gave the film a more international feel."
"I look at this from the perspective of trying to promote understanding between the Middle East, the Arab and Muslim worlds and the West over the past 35 years," she said.
