Winslet not Kidman

Kate Winslet is replacing mom-to-be Nicole Kidman in the new drama The Reader.
“Kate was offered it first before Nicole but couldn’t do it but the dates clashed with commitments to Revolutionary Road,” an insider tells People. “So the dates changed, Nicole then got pregnant and now it has come back to Kate.”
Added the source, “Actually everyone is happy now – Nicole as she has a baby on the way, Kate because she has this great role she originally wanted to do, and the filmmakers are too.”
The Reader is about an affair between a teenage boy and an older woman in post-WWII Germany.
