The women of 'Nine' don't look like they've been eating four-hour dinners...

Vogue-Cover-Nine-Novmeber_lCheck out some of the lovely ladies of Nine — Nicole Kidman, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz and Kate Hudson — on the cover of VogueVogue also has Annie Leibovitz’s shot on the set — also with Judi Dench, Fergie and Sophia Loren. The film, directed by Chicago’s Rob Marshall, also stars Daniel Day-Lewis as a famous film director dealing with all these various women in his life. The film is based on the 1982 Broadway musical that was loosely based on Fellini’s 8 ½. Cotillard tells Vogue: “It’s been my dream to do an American musical. When I was a child, Annie was my favorite. I just never thought I would get to do it.” Hudson also sounds especially up for the challenge: “I spent most of my childhood singing and dancing and just never had the chance to do it professionally. So when I got the chance to work with Rob, I was so excited, I was out of my mind.” And Cruz reveals she and Hudson had some four-hour dinners living in the same apartment building during the shoot: “We are exercising so much we don’t feel guilty at all.”

If you think they look good here, just wait for the film – Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood tells Vogue that she made 350 costumes for the principals. As EW reported this week, Nine will now open in December. Think it will be worth the wait? Which of these actresses will steal the show?

    Can’t wait to see this. Cruz and Cotillard are absolute goddesses.

  • Nick T

    Kidman and Cotillard!

  • Ceballos

    Penelope Cruz will steal the show. It’s almost absurd how excited I am for this movie.

  • Jay

    Nicole Kidman. They’re all great but I’m especially excited to see her.

  • JV

    I’m surprised no one has mentioned that Kidman and Cruz are in the same movie despite Cruz supposedly being one of the reasons why Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman broke up in the first place.

  • Brent

    As great and as beautiful as all of these actresses are, Judi Dench will steal the movie. She could read the dictionary and make it Oscar-worthy.

  • Susan

    Kate Hudson is going to steal the show and surprise everyone.

  • bdog

    They’re all amazing, can’t wait for this

  • Eli

    I gotta a feeling KATE HUDSON is gonna rock it out!

  • chichi

    Nicole Kidman will shock everyone when her forehead actually moves during a key scene!

    • Jay

      Just get over it already. No one’s amused at comments like these anymore.

  • fancypants

    ummm…when it comes to Nine, I really only care about Daniel Day-Lewis!!! I want to hear him sing in a trailer, and where are his magazine features?! more DDL!!! we’ve had enough kate hudson over the years.

  • Michael

    I have been waiting for this movie FOREVER. Cruz will definitely steal the show. She has the best part! Hopefully Nicole won’t be left in the dust though because I do love her.

  • lily

    Cruz or Cotillard (or both!) will steal the show, they both have talent, class and charisma in abundance

  • Joanna

    EW loves sexist tripe. What a surprise. The sad thing is Kidman doing this.

  • KM

    I think Cotillard is going to steal the show, just like she did in Public Enemies. Cruz is going to be amazing too.

    • Liz

      You’re kidding, right? She was horribly miscast in Public Enemies.

  • Kiko

    @ Joanna: the sad think you are allowed to use the web.

    Stop with this Kidman hate. It’s pathetic. She’s a great actress. Much better and much talented than Cotillard, Cruz together.
    Nicole will steal the show, as she has alway done for her whole career. Respect. It’s an easy word but with a deep meaning.
    Kidman: one of the greatest actress in movies hitory. It’s a fact. God bless her.

  • JAMMF

    I think Fergie and Cruz will steel the show because of the parts they’re playing.

  • Dre

    MARION COTILLARD ALL.THE.WAY!!!!

  • Jordan

    based on the snippets of buzz coming out of test screenings, Cruz and/or Cotillard will steal the show. Apparently Hudson has been devisive, while Dench, Fergie, Loren, and Kidman’s parts are all too small to make a huge impact.

  • shirley

    COTILLARD I HEARD STEALS THE SHOW WHICH IS COOL.

  • shevon
