Nicole Kidman to play 1st transsexual celeb

Mon 10 Nov 2008 In: International News

Actress Nicole Kidman looks set to play the world's first post-op transsexual celebrity – and Charlize Theron will play her wife, says the Hollywood Reporter. Trans-Australian: Nicole Kidman Kidman is also tipped to play bisexual British singer Dusty Springfield in an upcoming biopic. The Australian-born actress will star in and produce The Danish Girl – the true story of Danish artists Einer and Greta Wegener. In 1920's Copenhagen, Einer (to be played by Kidman) stood in as a portrait model for Greta, but their playful artistry became a journey of self-discovery for Einer, which threatened their marriage. Pre-production in the film has already begun.
