Kidman to Play White Witch: Official?

LOTR and fantasy fans everywhere who eagerly await the movie version of CS Lewis’ classic The Lion The Witch And The Wardrobe have one more reason to cheer. Not only is the project in pre-production with shooting scheduled to begin this July, but studio bosses at Disney have also signed Nicole Kidman to play the white witch.

IMDB.com reports that Kidman’s children Isabella and Connor, convinced Mom to sign the deal, stating “Nicole’s kids don’t pay great attention to her career – she’s just mom to them. But when she mentioned she had been asked to star in the movie they went wild. They even asked for jobs as extras.”

The site also reports that Kidman made a secret trip to New Zealand last week to check out locations and meet the crew. Expect the Narnia craze to get wilder in coming weeks as more details are released.
