Hey whatever happened to the Franco/Kidman Sweet Bird of Youth?

While originally I heard it was postponed, I get the impression it's now dead... Too bad, while the play can be hard to get right, it's one of my all time favorites and as much as I feel kinda overexposed to Franco and his myriad of projects, I was intrigued by the casting.

Franco dropped out of the production and it went into postponement limbo. Cromer very much wanted to direct the play (and I assume still does), but I don't know if Kidman is even still interested.
Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco.
Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!

Cromer is directing it in the fall @ the Goodman Theater in chicago. It kicks off their season.

With Kidman?

Was this dropped before or after he hosted the Oscars? Oy! Remember that?

I think maybe a little bit before. The guy has spread himself pretty thin anyway--or at least he pops up everywhere--those two beat poet indie movies, all the online stuff, his role on General Hospital, the weird pseudo documentary he's making, still apparently getting a degree, bla bla bla. He should have just done the play :P
