Naomi Watts would prefer her children just forget their moms a movie star.
The 48-year-old actress makes a leap to television with her new Netflix series Gypsy, in which she plays a therapist who gets fluid with her sexuality, addicted to meddling in her patients lives.
However, its a role shed rather her sons Samuel Kai, 8, and Alexander Sasha Pete, 10 this month, whom she co-parents amicably with ex-partner Liev Schreiber never streamed.
But Gypsy isnt the exception. The roles Watts, who has previously portrayed a pregnant stripper and a torture victim, doesnt want them to see are most of them, at this point anyway, she told PEOPLE at a screening of Gypsys pilot episode at the PUBLIC Hotel in New York City on Thursday.

Watts mission of withholding is becoming more challenging, she says, since her youngest is in a scary-movie phase and shes done her fair share in the genre, including last years Shut In and perhaps her most iconic example, The Ring.
The little one is dying to see The Ring because hes so obsessed with horror movies, she admits. Im trying to talk him out of it. I think its too scary.

If Watts sons do eventually end up watching her body of work, they likely wont have trouble relating to the characters since Watts has mostly only played mothers to boys including Theo James, Tom Holland and Jacob Tremblay (twice).
I dont have a lot of onscreen daughters, she previously told PEOPLE and Entertainment Weeklys editorial director in an episode of The Jess Cagle Interview. Its funny, I always knew I would be the mother of boys; its a psychic premonition.
Gypsy is available to stream on Netflix now.
