It seems I must now become a cinematic "archaeologist"...and try to dig up what remains of kidman's career. For truly it is been BURIED...and it seems rather deeply!
It's been over 3 weeks since kidman's film, "The Paperboy," made it's debut at the Cannes Film Festival specifically looking for a distributor. This film cost $12.5 million. Now it's looking like as has been mentioned Millennium will HAVE to, if they hope to release this film in the US,distribute it all by themselves. That is if director Daniel's cannot himself "dig up" another rube to actually PAY to put this fiasco of a film in theaters. Certainly the recent news coming out about those involved in the "urine stained" film is not very postitive to it's eventual fate. The recent news that Matthew McConaughey is passing on director Lee Daniels next film of course does not bode well for "the Paperboy"...

"Matthew McConaughey will not play JFK in Lee Daniels' The Butler"
...now of course McConaughey says that the reaction to The Paperboy in Cannes had NO effect on his decision NOT to do Daniels next film. It has also been rumored that kidman may have a role in Daniels' The Butler...we shall see how that rumor turns out!
Now, also in the news is that Daniels is taking the film to Ischia fest...

"Ischia fest up Hollywood wattage: pix include 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter'
"Other titles now set for local launches from Ischia include "The Paperboy" with helmer Lee Daniels and producer Avi Lerner set to make the trek;..."
...so I wonder...will ANY of the stars of the film make it to THIS premiere after the debacle of the Cannes premiere!? Now, my last observance onto the possible future of this film...if you go to kidman's own official website...you will find NOT ONE mention...NOT ONE photo of the "The Paperboy!" In fact the last "update" was back on May 9th and it was the posting of the trailer for HBO's "Hemmingway and Gellhorn"...and well all now know what a complete and utter failure that was for HBO...yes...a paltry 500k viewers! It would certainly appear by this "scrubbing" of ANY association with "The Paperboy"...that kidman is "washing her hands" of Daniels' The Paperboy. Just as she did with her previous debacle...."Trespass"...and her past debacle..."The Invasion"....and "The Stepford Wives...and on and on! In fact, it seems kidman is back to her "charity work"...which she ONLY gets to when she has a film to shill. Unfortunately for kidman...the films she had on tap are UNSELLABLE!
