Nicole Kidman is set to star alongside Charlize Theron in a movie called The Danish Girl.
It’s based on the true story of Danish artists Einar and Greta Wegener.
Nic will play a post-op transexual Einar in the movie. Charlize will play the role of Greta.
According to reports , Einar and Greta’s marriage ‘took a sharp left turn’ after Einar stood in for a female model that Greta was supposed to paint.
Their portraits became wildly popular in 1920s Copenhagen and Greta encouraged her husband to adopt the female guise.
This ‘game’ led Einer to a metamorphosis and landmark 1931 transsexual operation that ‘shocked the world and threatened their love.’
This should be quite inneresting!
