Nicole Kidman Sings As Dusty Springfield![]()
I know musician biopics have been really successful, but maybe, just maybe we’ve taken them a little too far. I get making a movie about someone like Johnny Cash or Ray Charles… but Dusty Springfield? Huh?
Dusty Sprinfield was a British pop singer, the most successful British pop singer of the British invasion. Apparently female singers weren’t very successful in invading America, because I’ve never heard of her. Nicole Kidman on the other hand, has not only heard of her, she’s playing her in a new movie about Dusty’s life for Fox 2000. They’re lucky they landed Nicole, because without her I can’t think of a single reason why anyone would ever want to see this. The funny thing is that this project that no one will care about is so hot right now that not one, but two movies are being made about Dusty. The one with Nicole is probably the most likely to be watched by anyone, just because it has Nicole. But Variety says Universal has a competing Dusty Springfield project going, with Kristen Chenoweth set to star. I’m pretty sure most people aren’t even interested in seeing a movie about Rick Springfield, let alone two movies about some forgotten songstress named Dusty. |
