I’m a big fan of Nicole Kidman. Almost without exception I have loved every performance she has ever turned in. I still think her performance in Moulin Rouge is one of the best I’ve ever seen by an actress… but I digress.
The good folks over at Cinema Confidential are reporting on a new project Kidman is going to be developing for herself:
Nicole Kidman and writer Simon Kinberg are teaming on an untitled spy thriller for Rengency Enterprises and 20th Century Fox. Kinberg will write the screenplay while Kidman will star and produce. The trade says that story details are being kept under wraps, but the film is described as being in the vein of “The Bourne Identity” but with a female protagonist.
Nicole Kidman in an action role? Hmmm… it’s hard for me to picture this one. Yeah, she was in The Peacemaker with Clooney… but she really wasn’t involved in the action that much. Can she pull this off? Well… if she can, it’ll make her one of the most well rounded actresses of all time in my opinion, cause this lady has already shown she can pull off just about everything else.
