| "Australia" star Nicole Kidman is moving on with a new film project, "The Eighth Wonder (2010)". The 41-year-old has been reported to be attached to star as well as produce the action adventure movie from "Mr and Mrs Smith" screenwriter Simon Kinberg. Still, what character Kidman will be portraying is yet to be shared out. Though much details of the storyline is closely guarded, it is said that the story will resolve around an archaeological discovery that sets off a globe-spanning race. Kinberg who is also touted to direct the movie is said to pen the script in fall. On the film itself, The Hollywood Reporter (THR) described that the film produced also by Laurence Mark is aimed to be "a character-driven, treasure-hunting thriller". THR also noted that Kidman and Kinberg supposedly should team up years ago when the Hollywood actress was set to topline "Mr and Mrs Smith" written by the scribe. |

| The "wonders of the world" include things like the great pyramids of egypt, etc (I'm really not sure what the others officially are) but to say in english that something "is like the eigth wonder of the world" or to say something like "he acted like it was the eight wonder of the world," that means that the thing being discussed was perceived as being of some great mystery or importance (as if comparable to the other great wonders.) That's common colloquial talk. |
