Rob Marshall’s “Nine” was set for a December 11, 2009 release and now it’s been moved up to a November 25 release date. Here’s what you need to know about the picture.
“Nine” – Weinstein Company – Dir. Rob Marshall
What You Need To Know: Not to be confused with the animated film “9“ also coming out in 2009, this film is the adaptation of a musical inspired by Fellini’s “8 1/2.” The star-studded film features Daniel Day-Lewis as a film director haunted by the women in his life (Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz, Judi Dench, Fergie, Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman, and Sophia Loren), ranging from mistress to deceased mother. To bait Oscar just a bit more, the film is the last scripted by Anthony Minghella (who co-scripted with Michael Tolkin).
Release Date: December 11, 2009, November 25
Marshall cleaned up at the Oscars with Chicago in 2002. Consider this one full-on Oscar-bait as well.
