Having let out confirmation about her pregnancy rumor, Nicole Kidman is hit by another speculation as she was said to withdraw from her new drama movie, "The Reader". According to Herald Sun's site, the Academy Award winning actress has quit from the project that is scheduled to start production this month.
In a statement, the Australian actress' publicist, Wendy Day, gave out hint that the 40-year-old has done what is recently rumored. She said, "I understand she's had to withdraw from the film and therefore she's had to give them the reason, and therefore she's now able to confirm that she's pregnant."
Reportedly, the wife of country singer Keith Urban dropped her involvement in the adaptation movie because she was concerned about the welfare of her unborn baby. Her alleged taking precaution was not without reason as in the past, she has experienced a miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy.
Still, Kidman's rumor of quitting the Stephen Daldry-directed film is being dismissed by The Weinstein Co. A representative for the studio, Matthew Frankel insisted that the "Cold Mountain" star is still a part of the film stating, "I am being told that the status on 'The Reader' has not changed."
