The Moulin Rouge! actress – who gave birth to daughter Sunday Rose on Monday (07.07.08) – will be in London for several months to rehearse for her new film Nine and has asked film executives to find a house for herself, husband Keith Urban and the couple’s newborn baby.
The film is based on the musical Nine and also stars Daniel Day-Lewis, Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard, Judi Dench, Sophia Loren and Kate Hudson.
Singing and dancing rehearsals have been delayed for several weeks to give Nicole, 41, time to spend with her daughter.
Filming for the $90 million movie is due to commence in September.
Director Rob Marshall recently revealed Nicole is relieved there are other big names in the cast, so all attention won’t be focussed solely on the Australian in her first role since giving birth.
Rob – who won an Oscar for directing Chicago – said: “She loves the idea of doing this. It’s kind of nice that she doesn’t have to carry the entire movie on her shoulders.”
Meanwhile, the couple have released a statement saying: “We feel immensely blessed and grateful to be given this beautiful baby girl. She’s an absolute delight.”
