Daniel Day-Lewis leaves the ladies swooning in 'Nine' (IrishCentral)
4 November 2009 9:02 AM, PST | IrishCentral | See recent IrishCentral news »
Daniel Day-Lewis looks like he’s enjoying his leading male role in the upcoming film “Nine,” and what red-blooded male could blame him? The double Oscar winner is surrounded by fellow Academy honorees Penelope Cruz and Marion Cotillard in this still from the hotly anticipated new musical "Nine," based on the Broadway show of the same name that scooped five Tony Awards back in 1982. Ddl, the only male star in the film, portrays a world famous film director in the 60s who has a professional and personal midlife crisis as he approaches his 40th birthday. And he’s surrounded by a phalanx of women, including a wife, mistress, muse, confidant and other assorted hangers-on. The film is directed by Rob Marshall, who helmed the film version of the musical “Chicago” a few years back. You’ll remember that “Chicago” was an Oscar darling, winning a Best Picture Oscar among other nods, »

Nicole Kidman's singing terror
29 October 2009 11:01 PM, PDT | Monsters and Critics | See recent Monsters and Critics news »
Nicole Kidman is terrified of singing. The 42-year-old star - who has previously released duets with her ?Moulin Rouge!' co-star Ewan McGregor and British singer Robbie Williams - insists she hates performing in front of people and had to be persuaded to sing in new musical movie ?Nine'. She said: "I was terrified of it. I am not a natural singer in the sense that I don't love getting up in front of a group of people and just belting out a tune. It needs to be coaxed out of me because I want my voice to tell a story and sometimes it doesn't have the capacity to do that." The actress felt particularly pressured because director Rob Marshall had »

The actress felt particularly pressured because director Rob Marshall had told her he envisaged her appearing as a "goddess" in the movie.
She told Empire magazine: "When Rob approached me, he told me a role had been written especially. He »
Oscar Verdicts on Mirren, Clooney, Jackson

By Steve Pond
These days, Oscar is a waiting game. Most of the films that are in contention for the top awards have made the festival circuit or been screened around town; in the best-picture race, there’s probably not much left to see.
But what is left is significant. Rob Marshall’s musical “Nine,” Peter Jackson’s “The Lovely Bones,” Clint Eastwood’s “Invictus” and James Cameron’s “Avatar” – those four films, none of which have screened to any significant degree, occupy four of the 10 slots on the majority of Os... »

Fergie's Busy Working, But Not On A Solo Record

Black Eyed Peas singer says she's 'not even thinking about another solo album right now.'

Fergie performed songs from her 2006 solo album, The Duchess, at the Avon Foundation for Women Awards Gala in New York City on Tuesday night, but she doesn't have plans to work on new solo music anytime soon. She's still riding high on the success of the Black Eyed Peas latest release, The E.N.D., and the group's touring schedule is keeping her busy these days.
She wasn't too busy, however, to attend the gala to show her support for women who are fighting breast cancer and to help end domestic violence. "I'm performing my own songs, not Peas songs, 'cause I don't have the boys with me today," she told MTV News on the red carpet about »
The Week in Film: What will fly at the box office? And what won't?
23 October 2009 2:13 PM, PDT | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »
Editor's note: This week we're welcoming Mike Wong on board to write our weekly movie column.
Another week, another set of movies. Hard to believe it’s already nearly November when the Oscar-bait starts being dangled, and unless you didn’t see any movies last week, I’m sorry to say it’s a good week to stay home or do something not movie related.
The first of the wide releases this week is Amelia starring the swanky Hilary Swank in a movie that almost no one was waiting for. This biopic about Amelia Earhart, the first female pilot to cross the Atlantic, seems to have flown out of the Hollywood machine with every cliché and formulaic fixture intact. Currently scoring a 22% on Rottentomatoes.com, I’ll wager that it’ll probably experience some serious turbulence in the box office.

Behind the Scenes of Rob Marshall’s ‘Nine’
22 October 2009 11:00 AM, PDT | The Flickcast | See recent The Flickcast news »
As you may know, this Rob Marshall directed film is loosely based on Fellini’s 8 1/2. It tells the musical story of film director Guido Contini (Daniel Day-Lewis) who’s facing a mid-life crisis. As he struggles to complete his latest film he examines his career, his life and the relationships with the various women in it.
If the quality of a film can be judged by the quality of its behind the scenes featurette, then I can safely say that Rob Marshall’s Nine is going to be one heck of a film. I’ve also included some new pics from the film as well which further illustrate just how great this movie is going to look.
Put all that together with the stellar cast and Marshall’s unquestioned ability to execute terrific musicals and Nine looks to have all the making of a hit. Be sure to check out »

'Nine' gets a 10 for debuting new footage in a scandalously sexy way
22 October 2009 2:40 AM, PDT | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
There is a lot of scuttlebutt going on about Rob Marshall's "Nine." Some positive, some negative, but much of it is tied to the seemingly never ending soap opera of the Weinsteins and their publicly noted financial troubles. And yet, so far, the ultra-experienced Harvey has been smooth and steady as the movie musical's Oscar campaign heats up. One of the main reasons the film became an immediate Oscar contender when it was announced in 2008 (i.e., "Oscar bait") is because the cast includes a laundry list of past winners and nominees including Daniel Day-Lewis, Nicole Kidman, Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard,... »
Cool Rehearsal Footage Compilation from 'Nine'
21 October 2009 9:08 AM, PDT | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »
The musical is enjoying a comeback right now, thanks in large measure to the success of Rob Marshall's Chicago, an Oscar winner back in 2003. It was his first film, following a career in the musical theater, so it shouldn't be surprising that this year's big musical - and a likely Oscar nominee for Best Picture - once again comes from Rob Marshall.
Nine, as we've documented a few times, has the best cast of the year. That's pretty much all you can say. The film is based on the musical of the same name, which itself is drawn from Fellini's 8 1/2, and that alone would put it on the Oscar short list even if it didn't have the pedigree it does. In fact, In Contention has Nine penciled in for 11 nominations at this point; that should give musical haters plenty to shout about, although it surprises me that there »

Bill Nighy Disputes Likelihood of 'Pirates of the Caribbean 4'
20 October 2009 9:55 PM, PDT | CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news »
We thought we knew what was going on with Pirates of the Caribbean 4. We thought it was going to be entitled On Stranger Tides. We thought that Rob Marshall was in talks to helm the film after Gore Verbinski stepped away from the project (hell, we thought Gore Verbinski stepped away from the project). Finally, word was the film would hit theaters in the summer of 2011.
Could all of this have been in error? Certainly we know that Disney fired chairman Dick Cook, a move that was of some disappointment to Johnny Depp, who had originally signed on to 'Pirates' in the first place partially on account of Cook, and subsequently grown far less enthusiastic about a fourth film after the chairman was ousted.
Now comes word from Bill Nighy, who played Davy Jones in the franchise, that the announcement of Pirates of the Caribbean 4 was premature.
Premature? Here's what »
Nine Rehearsal Footage
20 October 2009 4:23 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Yahoo / The Weinstein Company have debuted a great little behind the scenes look at Rob Marshall’s ‘Nine’. The footage shows Daniel Day-Lewis, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz, Judi Dench, Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman and Sophia Loren prepare for their song-and-dance numbers. I’ve embedded it below or head over to Yahoo to view in HD.
This movie does look like it’s going to be a real show both in it’s artistic content and in the fact it’s a movie based on the stage. Rob Marshall (Chicago) directs and although I’m not usually a big fan of musicals like this one, it does look excellent.
Check it out at a cinema near you on Christmas Day.

Rehearsal Montage from 'Nine' Steps On Stage
20 October 2009 2:44 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
Taking a cue from Team America: World Police, the Weinstein Co. has debuted a new rehearsal montage from Rob Marshall's upcoming musical Nine, which is due in New York and L.A. on December 18 and expanding nationwide on Christmas Day.
I am extraordinarily excited to see this film and while I did watch the trailer, I am done watching footage and saving it all for the theater so I didn't watch the footage below, but be my guest, it runs just over two minutes and just below it I have included a special bonus feature.
You can watch it in high definition at Yahoo.

Nine Gets a Rehearsal Montage
19 October 2009 11:58 PM, PDT | www.canmag.com | See recent CanMag news »
One of the things I've learned about getting older is that one, movies seem to affect you more emotionally, and, two, musicals become surprisingly cool; for the most part. I'm twenty-eight now, perfectly prepping me for Rob Marshall's Nine. Showing off the musical's energy, The Weinstein Company has released an interesting featurette that compares rehearsal footage with the final product...
Or close to it.

If you want to see Penelope Cruz, Kate Hudson, Marion Cotillard and plenty of other actresses dancing and frolicking around, then this featurette for Nine should be right up your alley. »

We have a new promo for Rob Marshall.s new musical Nine. It.s not a trailer, at least not exactly. They.re calling it a .rehearsal video. which implies that it shows some sort of behind the scenes footage. Except it.s so well put together that I.m not entirely sure where this black and white back stage stuff is actually behind the scenes of the film, or simply behind the scenes of the play that.s happening in the film. Oh look, I.ve just gone cross-eyed. Whatever it is, it.s kind of cool. Take a minute and check out the new Rehearsal Video for Rob Marshall.s Nine below or in HD on Yahoo. Nine hits theaters December 18th. For more detailed information on the film, visit our Nine Preview. »
Behind-the-Scenes Montage of Rob Marshall's 'Nine'
19 October 2009 8:06 PM, PDT | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »
A rehearsal montage from the forthcoming musical "Nine" has just been released. Put out via Yahoo! Movies, the two-minute video features a number of scenes from the film intercepting footage of the rehearsals for the song-and-dance numbers. Penelope Cruz, Kate Hudson, Stacy Ferguson aka Fergie, Marion Cotillard and Nicole Kidman are some of actresses seen.
Adapted from the 1982 Tony-winning Broadway musical, this Rob Marshall-directed movie revolves around world famous film director Guido Contini. Dealing with a personal and professional crisis, he struggles to prepare his latest picture, while at the same time balances the numerous women in his life from his wife and his mistress to his movie star muse and his mother.
Headlined by Daniel Day-Lewis, "Nine" is supported by Marion Cotillard as Contini's wife Luisa Contini, Penelope Cruz as his sultry mistress Carla, Nicole Kidman as his film star muse Claudia Graham, Judi Dench as his confidant and costume designer Lily, »

New Featurette/Montage of Rob Marshall’s Nine
19 October 2009 6:24 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
A new featurette, which is really more of a behind-the-scenes montage, has been released for Rob Marshall’s movie musical “Nine,” based on Frederico Fellini’s “8 1/2.” The musical follows famed fictional director Guido Contini (played by Daniel Day-Lewis) and the various people–wife, mistress, agent, etc–in his life. Between this featurette and the film’s trailer, I’d say “Nine” is looking sharp. My favorite movie musical of all time is Marshall’s “Chicago,” which really got it right, so I’m jazzed, if you will, to see him returning to the genre…and we can just overlook “Memoirs of a Geisha.” In addition to Day-Lewis, the cast includes Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard, Nicole Kidman, Kate Hudson, and the incomparable Judi Dench, so there’s something in there for everyone. Watch the featurette after the jump.
Featurette courtesy of Yahoo! Movies. “Nine” is set to open on Christmas day. »

Japanese Poster for Rob Marshall’s ‘Nine’
19 October 2009 1:07 PM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Here’s the Japanese poster from upcoming musical, directed by Rob Marshall. I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again, the cast is simply astounding and includes Daniel Day-Lewis, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz, Judi Dench, Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman and Sophia Loren. Between them they’ve been nominated for 17 Academy Awards with 7 Awards being won. It’s nice to see a poster with an image that hasn’t been rehashed fro images that we’ve already seen. As far as I’m aware, it’s the first time it’s been released.
I’ve previously posted the trailer and images for the movie which hits UK cinemas 25th November. Marshall has previously brought us Chicago and is going to direct Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, the fourth in the ‘Pirates’ franchise.

Japanese “Nine” Movie Poster
19 October 2009 6:23 AM, PDT | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »
Earlier we posted some Hi-Res images from the upcoming Rob Marshall’s new musical “Nine″ and today we have a international poster.
Marshall’s movie is based on the Broadway musical of the same name written by Federico Fellini, Ennio Flaiano. Adapted from the 1982 Tony-winning Broadway musical, “Nine” is set to be helmed by “Chicago” director Rob Marshall. The film actually was set to be tackled by the late writer/director Anthony Minghella and previously scheduled to begin filming in March 2008.
“Nine” is a musical following a film director named Guido Contini (Daniel Day-Lewis instead Javier Bardem), who is in his middle age. He is trying to complete his next film. His main problem is that he has too many women in his life. Luisa (Marion Cotillard), his wife, Carla (Penelope Cruz) his sexy mistress, and Claudia (Nicole Kidman), his muse and protege.
