Is Cheno going to play Sam or Louise in the movie? I am guessing Nicole Kidman will play Sam.

Yes Nicole Kidmen will play Sam. I think cheno will play Louise.
Yea, Nicole Kidman is playing Samantha. I guess that means Cheno is playing Louise, although I don't know who the character is.
According imdb:
Nicole Kidman .... Isabel Bigelow/Samantha Stephens
Will Ferrell .... Jack Wyatt/Darrin Stephens
Shirley MacLaine .... Iris Smythson/Endora
Michael Caine .... Nigel
Kristin Chenoweth .... Marie
not sure who "Marie" is, but Louise was Samantha's best friend, married to Larry Tate, Darren's boss.
And i wonder how long before this thread lands "off-topic." Chenowith isn't a strong enough reason for it to be on this side of the board...there are no posts about the Pink Panther remake.

Yeah, okay who the heck is marie? I thought she would play Louise or at least have a supporting character.
If I remember correctly, the part Kristin plays, Marie, is Samantha's nosy neighbor. Updated On: 7/5/04 at 10:12 PM
at first Jim Carrey was going to be playing darrin, but guess that all changed... he really would have been perfect. he's got the look, and his acting would be perfect for it.

Marie is the nosey next door neighbor who always tries to catch Sam doing things...

I don't know...

Who knows? But a character who is nosy is perfect for Cheno! Ha Ha!
is Marie some variant on Gladys Kravitz? that's the nosy neighbor i recall from the series...

Yep i think so. Do you think she will have like one line or be a supporting role. I.E. the nosy neighbor from Bringing Down the House aka Rose from the Golden Girls. That would be hilarious! And I thought Cheno as Ms. Noodle was funny!
What do you think this movie will be rated? I am thinking PG but I have never seen Nicole Kidman do a kid movie. Just wondering.

i beleive she is supposed to be that character, thats what i heard
Any idea who, if anyone, is playing Uncle Arthur? I've read they have considered both Eddie Izzard and Nathan Lane. I think Eddie would make a great Dr. Bombay; and Nathan could probably channel Uncle Arthur in is sleep!

I still say that it would be HILARIOUS to cast two 'Darren's and switch partway through the film.......
Too funny bg2!! A brillant idea I wish I thought of it!

... kind of like the Rseanne becky switch.... don't try to hide the fact that it happened. Embrace it!
Sedaris (whom i worship, along with her fellow brother deity David) would be a great Kravitz.
Jim Carrey would make an AWESOME first Darren.
And then Will Ferell can come in as Darren at the one hour mark.
