Jennifer Lopez Teams Up with Nicole Kidman in New Movie

Contributed by lopez_lover:

According to Variety, Nicole Kidman and Jennifer Lopez are tuning up to star in ‘American Darlings,’ a period drama that was bought preemptively by New Regency from a four-page pitch. Kidman has been the driving force behind the construct of the film, a drama about a white female swing band that joins forces with a group of black and Hispanic musicians at a time when women were ostracized from playing male-dominated clubs. Those sex barriers shattered soon after President Roosevelt declared war on Japan and the women suddenly played the hottest clubs and even squared off against the Count Basie orchestra at the Apollo Theater. Pic will be produced by Storyline Entertainment partners Craig Zadan and Neil Meron, and Carl Rumbagh and Susan Baton. Kidman will be exec producer. Rumbaugh said they will move quickly to secure a scribe, and he expects the film to showcase the singing voices of Lopez and Kidman.
