That is a great shot

Nice picture. I hope this movie will be a good one.

Those are some damn good-looking womenfolk.

WHOA! That looks AMAZING. Every one of them looks simply stunning.
I wasn't sold on the idea of Judi Dench as LaFleur, but the way she is standing in that pic is enough to convince me. Every single one of them look just out of the world. Hell, even Fergie looks like a fierce, grotesque, captivating Serraghina.
CANNOT WAIT!

Very stylish and stylized - in a CHICAGO sort of way. They do all look stunning!

Simply sensational.

Too bad they're all playing opposite Skeletor: Daniel Day Lewis.

This would have been a completely different film with the first cast Guido: Javier Bardem.

That's a lot of star power on that stage! Speaking of stage... Marshall is obviously keeping a lot of the theatricality.

As long as it doesn't come off as a filmed stage show, I think it will work.

I was kinda hoping I'd see these same wonderful ladies, even in these same costumes and poses (which are great!), but on location. Like old Roman ruins. I'm not sure I dig the obvious shafts of "theatrical light" shining down on them. Hopefully it won't be too stagy.

I'm looking forward to seeing a movie, not a stage play on film.

Looks great, but I'm confused as to who the 2 characters on the far right are. And if one of them's Fergie, who's that with her...legs open? Still sad this won't be a Javier Bardem piece.

[BrodyFosse123]

Posted: 11/7/08 at 9:49am

Fergie IS the one with her legs open -- she's playing Saraghina, hence the pose.

hmmm... i wonder if penelope and nicole compared notes?

[Li'l_Devil]

Posted: 11/7/08 at 9:58am

nicole doesn't cut it for me as claudia neither does day lewis as guido. i'll wait for this in the bargain bin at wal-mart.

That's what I thought, BrodyFosse, but then I'm confused about the other characters.

Love this photo. The only problem is that hideous man-beast Fergie flashing her muffin at me.

Exciting they actually got all these women in the same room!

I think it looks great, but am willing to bet this is a staged publicity photo and not anything from the actual film.

The two women on the right are Kate Hudson as Stephanie and Martina Stella as I believe her assistant but Im not sure if they've retained the Lina Darling character from the play.

wow!

A stunning photo. There's a hint of the original set of Follies if you look at some of the detail (the stairs and platforms etc.) . Still not sold on Kidman as Claudia, though. I don't know, we'll see. It's a phenomenal cast of actors. I just hope Marshall can prove that they are all right for their roles.

Great. I think Nicole Kidman is just so captivating! I too am now sold on Judi Dench.

I still really wish that nicole kidman and penelope cruz swapped roles. but it does look very good

[mormonophobic]

^^
and I thought I was the only one. I've been wishing that from the start! LoL. But the photo does look amazing and re-ignites my interest in this film. I'm surprised how much Dench and Fergie fit into it all. Hell, I'm surprised I just wrote about Dame Judi and Fergalicious in the same sentence. Whoah.

Kidman is just not right for this musical.

I love this pic! However, I too wish it was on location but I'm sure Rob Marshall has something up his sleeve. Can't wait to see it!

I love getting a peek, but I think the photo is terrible. I think Cruz and Kidman are perfect for their roles, singing aside. I'm not looking forward to Kidman's "Unusual Way".
