Nicole Kidman To Get With The Son Of A Preacher Man

Nicole Kidman is set to play British songstress Dusty Springfield in a biopic sometime after the birth of her child. She will collaborate with Hours author Michael Cunningham on the project. Nicole won an Oscar for playing Virgina Woolf in the film adaption of Cunningham's award-winning book. My first glimpse of Dusty was in the a Pet Shop Boys video when I was a kid, and I need to know more. The film will cover Dusty's career, her battle with the bottle and the pills, and her bisexual dalliances. Springfield died of breast cancer in 1999. Nicole can sing. Somewhat. I saw Moulin Rouge...she's ok. But Dusty Springfield? I assume there will be backing tracks and some lip-synching? Photos: WENN
