Rachel Weisz Joins Nicole Kidman In 'The Danish Girl'

The gestating transgendered drama "The Danish Girl," with Nicole Kidman has had several false starts since it was announced in September 2009.

[...]

Based on a novel by David Ebershoff, the film is a 1930s-set story chronicling the first-ever sex-change patient, Einar Wegener, a male Danish artist whose love affair with his wife — fellow Danish artist Gerda Wegener — set him on the path to an eventual male-to-female operation.

While Marion Cotillard was once rumored to have taken over the role, Rachel Weisz is now attached to play Wegener and Kidman—as was the original plan—will play the transgendered protagonist.
