Nicole Kidman Is Going To Play Grace Kelly
If you're devastated by this news, then I'll wait here as you do the silent cry wall slide against a wall that isn't as hard as Nicole Kidman's forehead. All done? Okay, so The Hollywood Reporter is saying that ice cold ice queen Nicole Kidman is in talks to play ice cold ice queen Grace Kelly in Grace of Monaco. Slap yourself with an ice dildo if you're calling it a biopic, because it's not a biopic. It will focus on a 6 month period in 1962 when Grace Kelly was 33 years old and trying to save Monaco from getting coup-ed up by France. The dude who directed La Vie en rose will also direct this.
My outrage over hos playing old time Hollywood legends in movies was used up on Lindsay Lohan leaving a freckled skid mark all over the image of Elizabeth Taylor, so I'm not mad at this. Yes, January Jones was born out of a block of ice to play this role, but there are a lot worse things in life than human tampon popsicle Nicole Kidman playing Grace Jones (typo and it stays for the visuals alone) in a movie. Something worse than that is using Head & Shoulders to fap in the shower. Don't do that unless your genitals are Botoxed like Nicole Kidman's face so you won't be able to feel a sting like no other.

wait'll you see her in the Kaufman Hemingway hbo movie ...lolz..
btw she was doing spin class in my neighborhood while shooting that
at crunch gym...I'm surprised someone didn't steal the bicycle seat
and sell it...given how avaricious my neighborhood has become

" Also, records show that she filed for full physical custody of both of her kids and Tommy really fucked her over. She did not abandon her kids."
I thought it was common knowledge that Scientologists encourage members to cease communication with friends and even family that have left the organization. I figured that is what happened here, that her kids just don't have anything to do with her anymore.
This news stinks. She doesn't have the talent or raw beauty to pull this role off. Bummer..

But how´s she going to flush all that Botox in time?

I was entirely unaware of how sucky it would get.

Btw....Nicole got her Oscar AFTER Tommy Girl. Also, records show that she filed for full physical custody of both of her kids and Tommy really fucked her over. She did not abandon her kids. While she was filming Australia, her son was there with her. Where do people come up with this??
Nicole will certainly play the shit out of this role, like she does with everything she touches. Why does it matter that she is tall? From what we have seen in film, height doesn't seem to matter much. Say what you will, she is really a talented actress who seems to love her work and is having a long career. Plus, I always hear that she is delightful to work with.
Yet another Nicole Kidman stinker. Haven't the studio heads figured it out yet that this bitch is box office poison?
Isn't she a little old for this role, especially if it starts when Kelly was 25 or 26 and first met Rainier? I mean, Kidman can easily play the older Princess Grace, but she's going to be hard pressed to credibly play the younger actress.
That said, I'll bet GOOPY, January Jones and the utterly disgusting Boobs Legsley are slitting their wrists (if only) over "losing" this role. Paltrow would have been OK in this role if this were 2000.
The problem is Nicole is grotesque looking and Grace was lovely looking.
I think this is an excellent choice. She basically already played Grace Kelly in "The Others".
Nicole is interesting, Grace not so much.
Does anyone else look at that picture and imagine that they would get into a gigantic fucking cat fight? Hair pulling and all, old school style.
Bodies are pretty similar, so I guess there is that.
I am far more interested in the dirt on Kelly than anything about Nicole though.
We all know about Kidman, or, at least, think we do, because blind items, gossip rags, etc are pretty current on her, of course, but because Grace Kelly is long gone, there's not much about her, except for the shrouded and revered past.
Not that I want to shit on the dead, that's really not the point, but I am sure she could not have been the one dimensional character that is sold these days.
OH HELL NO! Nicole can NOT act. She is woeful, just awful. And that frozen face, and those slug lips. This must be a joke, surely?
I like both actresses but I don't see much resemblance at all in these two women, or their style. And Grace is nice and hot in Rear Window, she's jonesing for Jimmy the whole movie, and in the remake of the Philadelphia Story: High Society. And did she ever get around in her day, what fun for a girl from the Main Line.
Can't believe Grace was only active for 5-6 years, her beauty is timeless! Not sure how Nicole can pull this off, it would be awfully hard for anyone... surprised she'd even tackle it!
"Something worse than that is using Head & Shoulders to fap in the shower." - No, can't imagine anything worse MK! :O

I saw the resemblance when Nicole starred in The Others. I remember watching an interview in which Alejandro Amenabar said that the wardrobe and hair style was definitely inspired by Grace. No wonder the name of Nicole's character is Grace in that movie.
I've always liked her, and think she is a terrific actress and can pull it off.

Probably a good choice as far as acting but making her look younger could be the real question. 33 in Lohan years would work.
Like my best friend says: Oh HFN!
HFN=Hell Fuck No.
OMG, too weird!! Yesterday, when I saw those absolutely gorgeous photos of Charlize Theron in Vogue UK, I was thinking I wish they'd make a Grace Kelly film starring her. Not Nicole!!! Damn. Charlize would have been perfect...she's the only one I can think of with the same type of natural beauty. I like Nicold Kidman (typo and it stays, lol) and she'll probably do fine but she definitely wouldn't be my first choice.
I think Kidman is a good actress. Kelly was nothing special. She was sold to the highest bidder and she was a big whore before that and her daughters followed her footsteps.
It's a lot easier to market a movie with a known person in it. That is why it's so freaking hard for new people to break in. It's also why Hollywood is awash in nepotism.
Not fair.
No. Just. No.
------------------------------
Fair is foul and foul is fair..
Forgot to add: With all that said, I don't think she is right for this role.
@Green Fairy-I tend to agree with you on a lot of points. I think KIdman was screwed over by Tommy Girl & CO$. I think she and Cruise were in a contract relationship, being married to him did open doors, BUT 1. I don't think she needed him to make it in the biz. She actually does have talent. 2. I don't think she gave away her two older kids.
To everyone else, believe what you will, but based on what I heard from a producer who worked with her, back in 2001-2002, she was working around her kids' schedule. It suggests to me she was in their lives for a time after the divorce. I would bet money those kids were turned against her and "disconnected" from her.
Also, even if she did agree to a contract relationsham and got perks, she was only 22 and newbie to Hollywood. No one really knew how cuckoo Tommy was or how fucked up CO$ is. It isn't like there was all this info out there that anyone with GOOGLE can access. She married him in like 1991.
With that said, I feel more sympathy for her than I ever will Stepford Katie who I truly believe knew WTF she was getting into. I also believe she willing sold her womb to him for fame and money and this idea she was going to be the next Nicole Kidman.
That must have been one starstruck casting producer.

Are you for real?
Seriously?
Did Nicole dump your head in the botox tub with her?!
I think Nicole is a good enough actress, but do I feel sorry for her? What is there to feel sorry for? She knew what the fuck she was doing when she signed that contract and married Tom Cruise. She knew good and goddamn well what she could get in return, and actually demanded to get in return for bearding a decade. Thanks to him, she has name recognition, millions of dollars, and several awards.
Of course she stays out of the limelight...NOW. She's already paid her dues and then some. Plus, everyone knows she cannot discuss their sham marriage anyway.
--------------
ITA - Nicole knew exactly what she was signing up for. She benefited from it (OSCAR), but she also paid a price - she was no innocent in that marriage.
=======================================================
First up @TheBreakdown, thanks for the personal insults.
Secondly, I know exactly what Scientology did to her and the shit they put her through. The phsycological terror and pressure they put on her to make her into what Stepford Katie is today.
She bore the full brunt of their brain washing pressure tactics and for her to resist that, and stay true to herself and her believes is amazing!
And before you hurl anymore insults at me, let it be known that the same thing happened to me (obviously not with Tom) and I lost my man too (he was also a man who was in a power position). I know exactly how Scientology works and just like Nicole I wouldn't yield either. It took me years getting over loosing a man that I loved to this cult.
The fact that she had some professional benefits from their marriage is neither here nor there. Stepford Katie has those benefits too and look how amazingly well she is doing as an actress (or whatever)!! *sarcasm* ... No Oscar for her anytime soon..LOL
In regards to fame whoring, the last time I checked there is no age limit to it and it seems that those middle aged women in Hollywood are often worse than their younger counter parts (it's called desperation).
Nicole has always been a class act.
End Rand!

If they are filming just the part of an older Grace I think Nicole would be fine...she can do it well if she sets her mind to it. She was great in The HOurs.
Holee shit. Look at Nicole's shoulders, then follow her arm down to her hands - see how much redder they are than the rest of her body?
Someone suggested on another thread that she is a compulsive hand-washer. I think that may be true.
And on topic - Nicole Kidman = Grace Kelly? FAILFAILFAIL

Back to Grace.... The reason she affected that quasi-british accent was to disguise her nasal Philadelphia accent.

anyshits, I never have like her, always seemes like an ice queen and her movies suck.
Ok, I did like "To Die For"
No, Kidman is totally wrong for the part. She is too tall, too old, and too meh to play Grace Kelly. This would be a film I would want to see, but not with Kidman in the role. No.
GreenFairy, how did the space religion screw her? She was lucky to get away! Too bad she had to leave the adopted kids with TG.

Nicole Kidman is a beautiful statuesque woman, who can't handle getting older.
She keeps herself out of trouble and takes care of her family. She always behaves like a lady, AND she seems one of the lesser fame whores out there.
I am sorry, but I can't hate on her.
After all she got royally screwed over by Tom and Scientology. Just alone for what she had to go through with that, I am willing to cut her some slack.
And I am probably the only one, but my favourite movie of hers is "Far Away". I just love that movie ;o)

uuggh. She needs to stop with the washed out hair color. She is not attractive anymore. Eat something, stop putting shit in your face and go back to being a RED head. Stop ugly. Stop it now.

I think that's an old pic. I saw a recent pic and she was back to being a redhead and has stopped the botox (she says) She looked a hundred times better.

you can also add Frank Sinatra, Paul Newman, and Marlon Brando to the list. But hey if you are going to get around Hollywood why not aim for the top, plus she was hot as hell, plenty of men wanted to be with her.
