Nicole Kidman
Oscar-winner Nicole Kidman is to star in a film based on the life of British pop icon Dusty Springfield, entertainment industry press reported on Friday.
The 40-year-old Australian actress will also produce the biopic, Daily Variety reported, adding that it was one of two films on Springfield currently in the works in Hollywood.
Springfield, who died in 1999, enjoyed huge success throughout the 1960s with a string of hits including "I Only Want to Be With You," "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" and "The Look of Love."
Springfield's success masked a troubled personal life however that saw her battle mental illness and drug and alcohol problems. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1995, four years before her death.
