Rosamund Pike: 'Gone Girl made me want a baby'

Pregnant Rosamund Pike felt inspired to have another baby after wrapping work on her thriller Gone Girl.

The British actress, who is expecting her second child, reveals her role in the dark movie convinced her to conceive.

She tells Britain's Mail on Sunday newspaper, "After filming I just knew I had to go out there and make a human being. The film was so tough and such a hard experience that the instant I'd finished I thought, 'I need to bring something positive into the world. Life is good with little people around'."

Pike is already mother to a two-year-old son named Solo with her partner Robie Uniacke.

In the film, Pike plays a woman in a troubled marriage who goes missing.
