Based on Pete Dexter's 1995 novel, The Paperboy follows newspaper reporter Ward James (McConaughey) and his brother Jack (Efron) as they're tapped to investigate and exonerate death row inmate Hillary Van Wetter (John Cusack) accused of murdering a local sheriff. Kidman's Charlotte Bless is a New Orleans woman in love with Wetter -- and as you can see here, this is not exactly the Nicole Kidman we're used to seeing. (Sofia Vergara was previously attached to play the role; the film is set to debut at Cannes.)
Is Kidman having a When Harry Met Sally... moment? Will the real housewives of the world take fashion cues from her next season? Caption away, Movieliners!
