HOLLYWOOD
- An exhausted
Javier Bardem
has bowed out of
Rob Marshall
’s musical
Nine
.
Variety
reports that the actor, who would have played the lead role of Guido Contini, loved the project but is too tired coming off a busy year including the awards-season frenzy.
Bardem
won an Oscar for best supporting actor in the Coen brothers’
No Country for Old Men
.
Nine
will be the big-screen adaptation of the stage musical that opened on Broadway in 1982. It has starred such famous folk as
Antonio Banderas
,
Raul Julia
,
Jonathan Pryce
,
Chita Rivera
and
John Stamos
. The musical itself was inspired by
Federico Fellini
’s movie
8 1/2
.
Marshall
’s film boasts
Penelope Cruz
,
Marion Cotillard
and
Sophia Loren
in the cast.
Nicole Kidman
and
Judi Dench
have also recently been reported to be in talks.
Variety
says that
Bardem
may take up to a year to recharge his batteries.
“
Javier
personally asked me if we could move production to February, but we just couldn’t do it,”
Harvey Weinstein
told
Variety
. “He is an amazing talent and I know we’ll work together in the future very soon.” The Weinstein Company is producing
Nine
.
Bardem
will next be seen in
Woody Allen
’s
Vicky Cristina Barcelona
, which will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival this month.
