Nicole Kidman, Too Old For Paramount, Best For Wong Kar-Wai

The Oscar-winning actress has been replaced by Hilary Swank in the "Pay the Girl" project for Paramount.
Nicole has been dropped from the cast of the movie for being too old. The film tells the story of Heidi Fleiss, a Hollywood madam who boasted having a vast string of celebrity clients.

Fleiss herself told MSBNC that Hilary Swank has been handed her part.

"She would have to play a 22-year-old, and she's nearly 40," Fleiss mentioned.

"I think she's amazing and could play a 22-year-old or whatever she wanted, but they said 'How about Hilary Swank?' and I said, great, fine, whoever. I would have said great, fine, whoever, if they had said Roseanne Barr. I stopped paying attention because I'm focusing on my future, not my past", Fleiss added.

However, Kidman's spokesperson declared that the actress has never been attached to the project and was "no longer even considering it".

Meanwhile, the Bewitched star has recently met Director Wong Kar-Wai in New York to discuss the latest arrangements for her role in the Lady From Shanghai, the director’s first English language film, which is set in Shanghai during the 1930's.

Nicole Kidman will portray a Shanghai woman who has a dangerous love affair with a spy.

The shooting will take place in Shanghai and Russia at the end of this year or early next year.
