THE SKINNY: Two actresses who perfected the art of getting ugly to win awards, together in one movie? It's probably safe to say that this one has Oscar nods written all over it.
Nicole Kidman and Charlize Theron will be teaming up to tell the story of the world's first post-op transsexual. THE DANISH GIRL, which Kidman will also produce, is based on the true story of Danish artists Einar and Greta Wegener.
Kidman will play Einar, who shocked the world with a 1931 operation. Theron plays Einar's wife Greta, whose marriage with Einar is under stress after his metamorphosis.
Anand Tucker (SHOPGIRL) will be directing the feature, which is adapted by Lucinda Coxon from David Ebershoff's 2000 bestseller.
In addition to Kidman, Per Saari, Gail Mutrux, Anne Harrison, and Linda Reisman are producing.
