She seems like an odd choice for Ulla, but I'll give her a chance. Who knows, maybe the padding will work.
Oh, and IMHO Ewan McGregor far outshone Kidman, singing-wise, in
Moulin Rouge. But I'm even doubtful of
his voice because all of the movie was so heavily edited. Who knows how much pitch correction they used? I guess they'll use editing in this movie, too, but I'd hesitate to give stars who sound okay in movies the true "triple-threat" designation.
And if the producers of
The Producers were really creative, they'd cast someone new and unknown. You know, take a chance or two in casting with strong material. But I guess that's too much to ask for. It's kind of sad when comic book movies take more casting chances than movie musicals. I guess they think teenage boys are more likely to accept new actors than theater lovers.
