Nicole and J Lo to be American darlings

Nicole Kidman and Jennifer Lopez are to star in a new film set in the 1930s and 40s called American Darlings.

Kidman has been keen to make the movie for years. It’s about a white female swing band that joins forces with a group of black and Hispanic musicians. At the time the movie was set, women were barred from playing in clubs that were mainly frequented by men.
