Well, this certainly isn't going to change the minds of those who think Rob Marshall is all style, no substance.
But god////, that is hot. Looks fantastic to me.
And Daniel Day-Lewis is NOT Skeletor! You bad person...
Is this just a press shot, or from an actual part of the movie?
Monica Bellucci should have been cast as Claudia. UGH, Nicole Kidman. UGH.
What a stunning photo! All of the women look phenomenal.
I'm glad to see the new support for Dame Judi as Lilliane. I've been thrilled since she was announced and the photo just furthers my feelings of how delicious she'll be in the role. Can't wait to see it!
Kidman is playing Claudia??
Great, yet another Marilyn imitation from her.
If you look at the bottom of the shot where the "FilmJerk" logo is, you can see what looks to be DDL with his back to the camera. Also all of the women are looking right at him. So it seems to me that this is actually taken from a scene in the film. Though, what scene exactly is any one's guess. Could be from the Overture...
Edit: Also they're all standing in front of, what look like, Roman ruins.

To me it looks very much like a press shot. Either way, it just looks so sexy and fabulous.
Will La Loren warble the beautiful title song? I heard a new one was being written for her, but it wasn't clear if it's to be an additional number or a replacement. The song "Nine" always breaks my heart; I'd hate to see it go. Please, no.
Wait. When did I miss that Lily is now the costume designer, not Guido's producer????
BBC over the 2009 Christmas season.
Meanwhile, Judi's having fun working with director Rob Marshall and 'the girls' on movie musical Nine with Sophia Loren, Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard, Nicole Kidman, Kate Hudson, Fergie and leading man Daniel Day Lewis.
Judi plays costume designer Lily and gets to sing Folies Bergere. 'I don't do any dancing, but I shimmy around,' she told me at the Quantum Of Solace party in Battersea.

Per a rep with Rob Marshall's office -- yes, that is the first press photo released. It is not a scene from the film but a publicity photo with ALL of the main women of the film.
Nothing more... nothing less.
Day-one of principal photography with Skeletor/Woody Allen and P. Cruz:
"Kidman is playing Claudia??
Great, yet another Marilyn imitation from her."
I don't see how Kidman would ever think to do a "Marilyn imitation" for a role like Claudia.
Vincente Minnelli is turning over in his grave.
Looks like a reality show, not a sophisticated movie musical.
Better shot...
Please notice that there has been some material added to Fergie's costume
Nine - High Quality Shot

Is it just me but does the whole thing have the same feel as Chicago? More-or-less the same feel for some reason... great shot nonetheless~ reali looking foward to it!
Why didn't Banderas get it? He is a star, has a good enough stature & killed in the part on stage .
I cannot imagine Lewis in it but time will tell.
Again... the photo is a staged/posed publicity/press photo released for the film. It is not a scene from the actual film.
Oy!

Fergie looks like a young Kristie Alley in that photo.
Wow!!
-- "Is La Fleur really the costume designer now?"
I seriously doubt it. I imagine that was an error on the part of the writer of that DailyMail article.
I definitely prefer the full shot. Very interested to see how this turns out.
