It was a movie based upon a true story of this white English woman who fell and love and married some wicked African despot. I don't think she dropped out of the film. The movie simply never got made. This happens to countless products given the green light. They fade away.
Yeah Kidman is not opposed to being with a black man in film as proven by the recent release of "the secret in their eyes"
Oh you guys it wasn't a accusation on Kidman whatsoever, I was just stating what I was hearing about the film. Sorry if I didn't word that right.
Let's face it. Film projects get shut down. It's either an issue of finances, script or timing. There was supposed to be a sequel to the film The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen. But after the first film Sean Connery had a blowout with Stephen Norrington an the film was never made. There was a sequel to the film Showgirls, in which Elizabeth Berkeley's character Nomi Malone heads off to Los Angeles to take on Hollywood. But it was never made. In the 90's The Black Panther was in the planning stages for a big screen release. John Singleton was to direct and Wesley Snipes was to play T'Challa. But the money couldn't be found. It faded into obscurity. This happens a lot in movies and television shows.
I saw The Secret Of Their Eyes and I was disappointed since there was sexual tension and no fire on the smoke. The closest ever when they were together was when they held hands.
JS,are talking about The Interpeter starring her and Sean Penn? Her character was involved with a Black man but,it was only mentioned.
DC,it is a tease. In the 90's there are a few films where brothers get the lovin and one which I consider the best IR flick of all time was One Night Stand starring Wesley Snipes and Nastassja Kinski made in 1997.
One Night Stand was the best IR film in the 90's because of director Mike Figgis, a man who had a lot of courage to make it.
Everyone was happy at the end. Although the scene where it was revealed that Ming Na Wen's character as Wesley's wife was having an affair with Kyle MacLachlan's character at the funeral gathering of Robert Downey Jr's character(he would work with Wesley again in the film U.S. Marshals). I remember the first time I've ever heard about One Night Stand was on public radio. There was a jazz program called China Gate. The host was China Vallas, a local in south Florida.(I bought a lot of jazz cds because of his show). He played the film score on the air. I had to see that movie because the score was very good.
Spike Lee's joint Jungle Fever was more or less a study of attitudes towards IR. Favorable and and unfavorable. It was said that his father had married a white woman and he wasn't too excited about it. Wesley Snipes and Annabella Sciorra were talking about IR and she sort of expressed an interest in having an IR. Wesley laughed and said something like,"Watch out, Snow White."
Derek Luke played Keira Knightley's ex-boyfriend in the 2012 movie "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World":
In the sci-fi action thriller movie "The Anomaly" Noel Clarke and the very beautiful Alexis Knapp are a pair/couple.
I might also add the film Rachel Getting Married. Probably the most positive and beautiful IR film of this century. Anne Hathaway is in it.
