Australia: Something Unusual & Special

The end of November is looming and all things going according to schedule the filming of Australia should wrap and head into post-production very soon!

In the meantime we’ll take any piece of news we can get. Thankfully with Nicole Kidman promoting her forthcoming film, Margot At The Wedding, there has been interest from journalists regarding the production of Australia, so we’ve been able to hear a bit of info here and there. Hopefully this will continue over the next…year!

Comingsoon.net spoke with Nicole and asked what it was like working in the outback with Baz Luhrmann,

I’m very happy to be in Australia actually. I’ve been there since April making this film and it’s my dream of making this film since I was a little girl and I hope it lives up to my expectations because I wanted to make a film that’s deeply romantic. It’s a got a magical quality to it, but still it’s a sweeping drama filled with some comedy and we can pull that off, I’d be very, very pleased.

It’s also nice to stand by a director you’ve worked with before and say, “I’m right here next to you again. Let’s go. Let’s try to do something unusual and special.” Who knows? Next year, you’ll be sitting here and saying it didn’t work. We’re certainly working hard towards putting something magical on screen.
