Kate will be playing the role of Tula in the upcoming movie musical Romance and Cigarettes directed by John Turturro, starring James Gandolfini and Susan Sarandon.

Why a musical? She's a fine actress- stick her in a play.

Why NOT a musical? If she can both sing and act, why hold her back by putting her in a non-singing role?

Pah, that came out wrong. But I don't see being in a play as a limitation. Why do people automatically assume being on Broadway means being in a musical?

Calling Kate a singer after what she displayed on SNL would be wrong. She "carried a tune"..hardly sang. She could do Sally in the new Cabaret.

But those pull backs and wings..who knew!

kate winslet clearly isn't a broadway singer after watching snl last night. Maybe if we're lucky she'll be dubbed like minnie driver in the movie she's doing. She should just stick to acting.

I would kill to see her as Sally in Cabaret. I think she could do Broadway if the right show came along. And when it comes down to it, she couldn't possibly be worse than Melanie. . .

She would need SO much vocal coaching if she was going to carry a lead role in a musical 8 times a week. I would love to see her on stage too. She was, as I mentioned before, considered for Proof when it was in London, but that didn't work out.

I actually think Kate Winslet would make a great Violet in "Violet". She is a great actress and that role wouldn't require her to have too much vocal training.

she was in a version of christmas carol a few years ago and sang a song on the soundtrack- called 'what if'. if you listen to this you'll know that she does actually have a legitimate voice.

I liked her little opening song and dance. Not a great voice, but she danced well, we know she can act, she's looking pretty good, and, despite the boring roles I've seen her in, she demonstrated that she can have a little thing called charisma....

I'm telling you guys, we'll be seeing Kate in either the film version of "Sweeney," all caked-up with aging makeup to play Lovett, or, if Sam Mendes ever decides to bring it to film, she'll be Sally in his "Cabaret"
